@mlogan: Yeah, you can listen to it here.
@Tai: It's an old name, so a bit embarrassing, but it means smart (=slim) girl (=meiske) in the Flemish dialect.

@Cel: Welp, yes, but the correct spelling should be meisje and not meiske then ;)

It means Girl in the entire Dutch language :p

As for my username ...

Say-lee-anna.

So not 'Cell-e-anna', as many think.
With my accent I pronounced it as "seh-li-ah-nah" all these yea--months.

Fascinating. But what does it mean?

I've always thought it was "Sell Yee Anna".  But, I'm just weird like that.

I forgot that saying "anna" in English means you're actually saying "enna". So here's me correcting my mistake:


Say-lee-ah-nah.


Also, here's how I pronounce the usernames of some of our staff:


Lunarea: Lu-na-ray-ah


Archeia: R-kay-ah


I know that's totally not how you say it - BUT IT'S A HABIT I CAN'T GET RID OF.

Well, until recently my username was Irili: eh-real-e

I'm not really sure where the username came from since I've been using it since like 2005.

My new username is a nickname that some friends use. It's pretty straight-forward as far as pronunciation goes...

Depends on how you're feeling.

Normal: Wall iss thuh pig

Fancy: Wall iss thee pig

Cockney: Wull us thuh pig

Guy who can't speak English: ウォレス豚 (I think? Guggle translate is nice, isn't it?)

Say-lee-anna.

NO

That would mean that every time somebody refers to you as "Cel" they're pronouncing it "Sayel" and that is UNACCEPTABLE

To moi, it will always be Cel (like the animation) eee (like the letter of the alphabet) ah (like when the doctor says "Say ahh") na (like "Do you wanna watch TV?" "...Nah")

Also I can't not talk about Ghoti. What, you thought that was pronounced like the facial hair? Nope, it's pronounced like "fish." You heard me. "Gh" from "enough," "o" from "women," "ti" from any "-tion" word ("radiation, causation, automation, and so on).

English is weird.

I was right, it's totally pronounced as 'Farm' :)

I forgot that saying "anna" in English means you're actually saying "enna". So here's me correcting my mistake:

Say-lee-ah-nah.

Also, here's how I pronounce the usernames of some of our staff:

Lunarea: Lu-na-ray-ah

So much change... I can't accept it.

Not like anyone can hear me reading in my head, though, so I might be able to get away with what I used to call y'all.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm rather fond of a wee pun, myself. ;)

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
