I pronounce it 'Sword' but the GB team especially Ryan seem to pronounce it 'Sword' is there an injoke I'm not getting?

" I pronounce it 'Sword' but the GB team especially Ryan seem to pronounce it 'Sword' is there an injoke I'm not getting? "

I'm quite sure it's a joke. There is one way to pronounce sword, and it's not the way Ryan pronounces it.

I say sword.

You pronounce it "Sword" and they pronounce it "Sword", the exact same spellings, according to what you said. Could you maybe try to elaborate on exactly what you mean?

I pronounce "sword" as "fasjhgoidashgisaubdugos".

i say sored

Sord.

The reason why the Giant Bomb crew pronounces it the way they do is because of The RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan.  He's always pronounced the W in sword for some reason.  If you listen to older episodes of the Bombcast, you'll hear Jeff and Ryan reference the Wu-Tang Clan.

Without a w.

i say it as "penis"

with a silent dubya.

Swarduh.

I think the OP used a voice to text program to make that comment.
 
I pronounce it the normal way-  Soared.

Are.  you.  serious?  Ryan's not that stupid, he already explained, when they were answering to an email on the Bombcast, that he said it that way because it's awesome-r sounding than the correct pronunciation.  But it's all jokes.  I'm sure (I hope) everyone knows how to pronounce the word correctly, at least in normal speech.

"Swords for $400, Alex."

...this is a joke right? right? "

Well, Ryan calls Batman "Batmin" and Robots "Robits". He's a strange strange person.

its a silent W, anything else is completely stupid.

" s-awe-d "

Oh, will you people just stop with this baffling inability to understand that he's just doing it for shits and giggles. Yes, of course he's pronouncing it wrong, but anytime someone tries to explain why he does it, it just drains all the fun out of it. 
So please, stop asking why Ryan says "Absofruitly" and "sWord" and "robit" and "interweb" and countless others and just be at ease with it and shut the fuck up.
 
Sorry.

It's in inside joke with Ryan. He pronounces robots as "Robits" too. 
For the sole purpose of confusing people, he said as much when it was brought up on an older episode.

I remember on one of the bombcasts that Ryan likes to "mispronounce" words specifically to annoy people and sound different. Seems like it's working.

I say it like sord.

Sord. 

I know, man. I say it like sword but my friends says it like sword and his cousin says it like sword. One time we got into a fight and his mom said it was sword, and we all said it was sword.  
 
Totally crazy, yo.

" soared. but i hear it pronounced soared.  "

" I pronounce it 'Sword' but the GB team especially Ryan seem to pronounce it 'Sword' is there an injoke I'm not getting? "

I pronouce it like "word" with an s at the front. That's how it's supposed to be. everyone else is wrong.

"sored"

Do you pronounce "robot" as "robot" or "robot"?

Properly.

" Do you pronounce "robot" as "robot" or "robot"? "

Oh hey, welcome to Giant Bomb! I guess you weren't around for the 3 or 4 similar threads posted in the past.

" I pronounce it 'Sword' but the GB team especially Ryan seem to pronounce it 'Sword' is there an injoke I'm not getting? "

i pronounce it "Sord" like most people, Ryan is just special like that, one of the (many) reasons we love him (and hate him at the same time)

I pronounce it Schwartz.

" Without a w. "

" i say it as "penis" "

" soared. but i hear it pronounced soared.  "

found this fucking around on google (googling my own name, fine.) I like to think Ryan would have liked it :)

Sords

This thread just makes me miss the constant stream of people who could never understand that Ryan just enjoyed ironically mispronouncing things.
