Brahr or Brire

"Briar", as in the thorn on a rose, is actually how I'd expect most people to pronounce it. But I've always pronounced Megan's name as: Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are.

YEah, i know what the word means. XD I'm from SouthEastern Tennessee. We pronounce it Brahr. As in a thorn bush is a Brahr Bush and the thorns on Roses are Brahrs.

I wasn't assuming you didn't know the meaning of the word! I'm sure anyone knows what it means. What I was trying to say was that my assumption was that people would pronounce the name as they do "briar", in whatever version is common to their area, as that's just the most intuitive way to pronounce it.

*nods* Okay! trust me I didn't take offense. :3 But that IS how we pronounce the word Briar.

We also pronounce Hollow=Holler. and other such things.

I thought so.

I pronounce it Bri-yar

You win! You've come closer than anyone to guess yet. I've always pronounced Megan's name as: Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are. So that's pretty neat.

That's how it looks

Something like Bra-e-are or Brah-iar on spanish pronounciation.
XD

I'd never actually thought of Spanish pronunciations. Then again, I only ever had one semester of Spanish, and the professor wouldn't even teach us how to pronounce the words, so there you go. Anyway, I've always pronounced Megan's name as: Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are. Because I'm odd like that. But your first guess is kind of pretty.

Hahaha, I´m a spanish native speaker, that´s why I added it ^w^
Bry - ar sounds quite good also, though for me it will always be Bra-e-are XD

Yeah, I kind of remembered that you were right after I posted, actually. I'm slow sometimes. It really is a pretty language, and one of these days I'd love to take a second shot at learning it.
Whichever version works best for you. I really don't mind how people pronounce it, this was just me being nosy as usual.

No idea to be honest. When in doubt I pronounce words like they're written till informed otherwise..

Same here, actually, unless I think I've got a pretty good guess at it. Or, if I'm feeling brave, I might ask. In any case, I've always pronounced Megan's name as: Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are. Though I'm not too hung up on how people pronounce it, really. I'm just being my usual nosy self.

BR-I-ER

That's how I kind of expected people to pronounce it. Or whatever version their local dialect supplies. But I've always pronounced Megan's name as: Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are. 'Cause I have to be difficult like that.

That' how I pronounce it.. honestly.. it thought that's how it would look phonetically

I pronounce it the same way I pronounce briar, as in the pointy bramble that produces cute white flowers. But then, being from the south, I pronounce that a little differently than most I've heard.

Bry as in eye.
Ar as in aardvark.

And you're right on. That's how I pronounce her name, too.

Though this post has shown my ignorance a bit, too, as I generally pronounce briar as "bry-er" instead of with the "ar", and I wasn't thinking about difference in regional dialect.

Brer as in brer fox. Naw, just kidding. Briar, like it looks.

I'll take it! Br'er Rabbit was actually pretty big influence on my rabbit characters, and especially on Megan herself.

LOL...Don't..oh DON'T throw me into the brier patch! PLEEEEEZE!

Pretty much the way you do . .I keep saying it over and over in my head and its rhymes with rye like you think.

Awesome. I hadn't actually planned for it to have that particular pronunciation, it's just the one that kind of stuck in my head. But I kinda like it.

I pronounce it "Pet"...

Okay, it won't help you, because unless you know how Hungarian letters are sounding, this info will be useless for you. But here it is:
"Bryar" We call the letter "Y" (wye) Ipszilon (epsilon) when it's the letter only. For that reason alone the first letter of Ipszilon is "I" and most Hungarian people, who aren't speaking English pronounce "Y" as "I". So "Briar" should be right...

Now I know how to speak English so quoting you above: "Bry - to rhyme with rye, ar - to rhyme with are." Bry-are...I pronounce this in Hungarian like this "Bráj-ar"...the "áj" you pronounce as the "saying yes to the captain" the "aye" and even the "eye" sound the same to "áj"... (My name sounds like Killeráj Darkstón in Hungarian) So it's "Br-aye-ar" ...Head hurting now? Check out these letters then: "éáöőüűóúí" ...if you see them...well it's probably confusing to you.

'.Head hurting now? Check out these letters then: "éáöőüűóúí" '

Is that anything like E-I-E-I-Oh? (as in Old McDonald had a farm...)

by the way, Mistress, I'll be glad to fill in for Megan since she's already taken..... *wiggles her eyebrows*

Something like that. the basic letter with the dots above them we pronounce shortly, and the one's with the double lines we pronounce a bit longer. "Beer" we would say as "Bír" or "Hood" as "Húd" so it's effectively the same, as the English double-vowel...kinda.

And, nope! You can't fill-in for Megan!
You have your own, very special place in my heart dungeon!

*cringes and smiles hopefully at you* Not TOO deep, I hope!!

I keep bunnies "at the ready" status. They are needed a.s.a.p., when I have sudden heat waves...

Funny.....I would have sworn you were in heat all the time.

That's because my friends only meet me, when I'm - more or less -in heat all the time...
...they wouldn't like me when I'm not in heat! I'm usually very sadistic and doing stuff, that is considered evil acts by most individuals with Natural & Good alignment. So the time spent with my friends are also confusing them, to think I'm fun-no-end. But when I go down to the torture section of my dungeon...Soul/blood/information harvesting and undead creating aren't going to be done by itself...

*would squeal if she had the nerve for it, but is WAY too intimidated for that* [unfortunately there is no icon for being scared shitless...but if there were, I would put it here]

The only thing you should be scared of, that I love you waaaaaaaaay to long. I have a high stamina, and a long session cuddling can last for days!
Safe word is useful - Your current one is "Megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért"...Yup it's one of the longest word in the Hungarian language..
"scared shitless" Anal time then!

Oh crap! I can't even spell my safe word, much less pronounce it!!! I think I'm in deep doo-doo! *looks at you with a pitiful little smile, hoping you won't HURT ME! too badly* (see how it puckers?)

How about something shorter then, like "Elkelkáposztásítottalanítottátok"
Yes, I can see everything just fine...You look sexy bound to a sawhorse. Let me grab my strap-on with the changeable dildos for the harness! There are increasing sizes in that package, according to which species phallus one chooses...the last one I call "Girl Breaker". I wonder if you manage to get that far!

Oh! That's much better!! Still not in my vocabulary though, dang it! I guess I'll just have to......WAIT! SAWHORSE?!?!?! INCREASING SIZED DILDO'S?!?!?! Oh curse! Horse is the most I've ever managed. Pleeeeze...don't tell me you have a bigger one!!!! *though she privately wonders what the 'girl breaker' is*

And hopes it is gigantic.......

There is a replica in that collection from  MinnieShoof's spear...The "Girl Breaker" is a few sizes bigger and shaped after a young dragon's thing-y...with all the bumps, ribs and spikes on it's surface...it tickles rather nicely! Yum-yum!

Whoa! I'm fu**ed...... to coin a phrase. Do you suppose you could introduce me to it kind of sloooowly? While I'm a bunny, and very stretchy as you know, I could use a little tenderness here. Kay?

*Takes a note of that request, but scares you so you might worry/feel more excited about it.* I cannot make such a promise, just that I'll try my best, so you can enjoy this to the last piece!
But we will hold a lot of pauses...in those I'll focus on pleasuring other sensitive parts of yours!

*makes a dying carrot sound* No....no......you can't scare me! *lying as we all know* I'm not afraid of that thing....big as it may be. *smiles bravely, even though she thinks she may be speared with it any moment*

*...after a looooooong stretching session, you are facing against the "Girl Breaker". It slides into you rather smoothly and it's not un-comfortable at all.*
-The last pieces are made from soft-elastic foam, so only their size are scary, but actually they are fitting every girl quite comfortably...the name is there to break the mind and instill fear...just before realizing it is a trick!" *giggle*

You are SUCH a tease!!! Would I could only kiss you, my mistress....but the gag is soooo in the way! Please! Take it out and I will give you so much tongue you will choke....

Tongue goes where?

Um......where you tell me it goes?

Flawlessly said!

A little whipping goes a long way towards making Bunny think before speaking.

I know!

Hmmmm....almost looks like you're trying to hint something to me......

Yeah. Almost...

Like maybe if I'm a good girl I'll get a treat?

That depends on my mood. But the one thing sure is: It's impossible not-to-be a good girl, after my whipping session!

EEeeeeep!

Alas, I've already got a Mistress. But I'll bet you'd make a great one.

*stole your DNA ages ago, made a clone*
Hey! I pronounce everyone's name like that, whoever I deem worthy of remembering on their name!

As I've said to a coupe of people above, that's how I pretty much expected people to pronounce it. Because I was silly and forgot about things like regional dialects, but still. The official pronunciation, or at least the one that I normally use is bry, as in rye and ar as in are. But that's because I'm silly.

Though, as I might have mentioned, I originally used Bryar as Jessamine's last name in my second novel, where it was largely inspired by her rather prickly nature. I just stole it for Megan because I liked it.

tit-tees

was that close?

I suppose it'll do. She does have a pretty awesome pair!

>_> <_< PURPLE NURPLE!!!!! *grabs, twists and flees*

*Pouts* Meanie. You're lucky I like you, or I'd tell Zuri!

D:

Aw, you know I wouldn't really do that.

She'd probably blame me for encouraging you!

*giggles*

I pronounce it "bunbun" =~.^=

But seriously, yes, I am one of the very many here who also indeed pronounce it usually just the way it's written; like briar, with the more long-drawn eye sound to the I, and the "bri" part emphasized =^_^=

*Giggles* Bunbun will do just fine. It makes me smile every time you call me it.

Hee! Aww, I'm really glad to hear that, bunbun =^_^= It just so fits for me; a cute pet name for a cute pet! =~.^=

bree ur !! ^v^

Eye-are. Always have.

I have heard some interesting pronunciations of my username :D

I'm sure you have. Actually, I've always kind of wanted to ask you how you pronounced it, just to see if I have it right. My guess is that it's pronounced something like "say-sha", or maybe "say-shia", but I'd love to know for sure.

Yep, Say-sha :D

Yay, I had it right! I've always thought it was a very pretty name, too.
