How do you pronounce Xpango?


Random poll, but I just had to ask.

I always assumed it was pronounced "spango" but I just watched this video and he pronounces it "ecks-pango" and I'm confused.

You'll probably think it's completely useless but I'm intrigued as to how you pronounce it!

Cheers,

Chigley

Re: How do you pronounce Xpango?


Ugh I appear to be in the wrong... "spango" feels normal, "expango" just feels awkward when I say it. Please don't patronize me about my age, I doubt your English is dramatically better than mine anyway - you're not much older than me anyway.

Lol, never heard this asked before!

To avoid any further confusion, it is pronounced 'Ex-pango'

Hope that helps!
