Ptac  made up the work PTokax....
so in reality there is no definate way to
pronounce it, so..........
-pronounce every letter
-skip every other letter
-just say one syllable
and you should be right.
just type it right.....and you should be good.

Hmm, according to my information and knowledge - letter P is pronounced in every language...

Hey smart ass, get a clue.  How about pterodactyl, or ptomaine?  All i asked was how to pronounce it.  and all you had to say was "there isnt a real way to say it."  But yet, your little smart ass self has to say something.  What are you, like 12?

there is no "real" way of pronouncing it.

heya peeps


well with much  deliberation and Sleepless nights i managed to work it out.


lets  take the word   Ptokax  and brake it down....

ok starting with the " P"

takin it to accout that it precedes a " T " i found it difficult to say so further research turned up proof of this.

heres just a couple out of the many words that seem to drop the " P " for some unknown reason.

Psyche - the human mind or soul.
Pteropod- a small marine mollusc.

A total waste of a perfectly good " P " if you ask me.

so now weve esablished that the " P " is silent we are now left with  Tokax.
 
so lets now look at the " T "

well further searches found that this is also silent both  Tsar and Tsarina words prove this point.

well  now  i was  seeing a pattern to this  so i researched and researched further and after more sleeples nights it came to me in a flash.  take these following words.

Ousel  ( pronounced  U.Z.L )
Oust  ( pronounced aust )
neither word actually using the O as it should be but actually using it in place of letters that would most suit words like that for it to be spoken correctly.
so i decided that the O should also be dropped as its proper use is Unknown.

Knight , Knock  are just a couple that dont pronounce the " k "

aerial ( erial ) , aerie ( eyrie ) ,  both seem to neglect the fact that theres an  " A "  in front.

that just leaves us with the " X "  i was at first fooled by the word Xenon in to thinking that  Ptokax is actually pronounced  " Z "  but why break a perfectly simple chain of research?

the word Xhosa fails to pronounce both the " X " and the " H " and instead uses a " K ".  so the " X " is silent here.

so finding these words convinced me the " ptokax " is actually pronounced   "             ".



what! you missed it ?   let me show you again this time i'll underline it .... "______".



ok so the word PTOKAX  Is not for the Spoken language its a word that can only be documented, NOT Spoken.

which confuses me a little to say that most of the advertising of PTOKAX is " Word of Mouth "..... figure that one out  hmmmm.

anyway i hope everyone can now sleep better for knowing.

but this leads us on to another greater question..........


HOW THE HELL AR WE SUPPOSED TO PRONOUNCE   " ptaczek ".


i have a theory for this but its not conclusive yet..

????L?F??

p-toe-kak-s

or

p-toe-ka-eks

p-ta-check

i think
Whos ya daddy  :]

pHaTTy

well i still pronouce ptokax

p-toe-kax

and ptaczek as

p-tak-zeck

nice research for for the A tis wrong because texas pronouce arial ahrial ;)

so looks like u got another few sleepless nights until you get rid of the A :p
Resistance is futile!

Oh my... ;DDDDDD This thread fired me totaly out laughing and rolling! You people are crazy beings and I really love you! Let's continue and meantime I think I'll prepare some audio samples of how Im pronouncing this incredibly stupid artificial word.
The fact is that the word means absolutely nothing even in my language and was sythesized as a permutation of several czech words including my nick Ptaczek. And I must admit that some weed was behind it all ;)  But pssssst!
