*HaLo* · 07-09-2004, 12:26 PM

Meh, I say Greddie, you say G-ready....
Who cares?

***S14DB*** · 07-09-2004, 03:35 PM

They say it 10 times in the Mothers comercial on Speed Ch.

MikeDeuce · 07-09-2004, 04:42 PM

Shin_Kudo · 07-09-2004, 10:35 PM

I always say it Gr-ready. I know a lot of people who insist it's Greedy, though.

**mrmephistopheles** · 08-02-2004, 03:51 AM

GULEDDI.

I think this thread is pronounced 'lame'.

edit: yes, 'PRO'nounce. not PERnounce.

-E- · 10-27-2004, 05:30 PM

GRReady .

steaLthy240 · 10-27-2004, 06:25 PM

Gred - die

sciamop · 10-28-2004, 08:16 AM

GReddy is a combination of two words:

GREAT (grAt)
adj. great·er, great·est
1. Remarkable or outstanding in magnitude, degree, or extent

&

Eddy (ed'E)
1. A current, as of water or air, moving contrary to the direction of the main current, especially in a circular motion.
2. A drift or tendency that is counter to or separate from a main current, as of opinion, tradition, or history.

----

So the correct pronunciation would rhyme with READY... I prefer the 'Greedy' pronunciation (like HK$, etc).
