Hey /jp/. How do you pronounce loli? Do you pronounce it like "lolli" in lollipop?

>> No.6463187

Yes.

Not that I ever have any occasion to actually speak the word "loli" out loud.

It's lo-lee, not lah-lee. Read the book if you haven't yet- Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. I don't care if you never say it outloud, it's important.

Why do you need to know how to pronounce it? Are you really going to talk about it verbally?

You're going to go outside and tell someone, 'I'm really into loli' ?

You're going to announce out loud that 'I am a lolicon!' ?

You're going to find someone and ask them where all the cute loli are because you want to take pictures of their panties?

I did that once, it was a very liberating experience. Surprisingly enough, they didn't care because they thought I was talking about the book. Which I also like, by the way, so everything worked out fine.

>> No.6463274

even though I know it should be loh-lee, I always mentally pronounce it rhyming with "bowl"

Except the way we use it now is usually referring to exclusively Japanese content, there's no need to deviate from their pronunciation, with the exception of accommodating for the fact that they can't pronounce L. "Lo-lee" is close to "Loli" if you assume Japanese actually had an L anyway.

Hey! Don't dis Daijuji's awesome line.

>> No.6464026

Loli is primarily a Japanese word, so the L's would be rendered as alveolar flaps (like Spanish R, but without much or any trilling) and the O and I as clipped, pure versions of the English "Oh" and "ee". I believe a Russian pronunciation would have almost English sounding L's and shorter O's and I's, but that seems to conflict with his description of the pronunciation of the name. Nabokov's description is of a Spanish pronunciation, with alveolar flaps and a forward T that taps on the back of the incisors, so that's probably how he actually pronounced it.

>> No.6464043

>>6463996
No wait, that wouldn't even fit a Spanish pronunciation, since they're L's instead of R's. His description would be the Spanish pronunciation of Rorita. The only language I've heard of using alveolar flaps for L's is Italian, and even that's only in a few dialects. Maybe Nabokov just didn't understand phonetics.
