How do YOU pronounce Beau?

[misspiggy95]

I pronounce it like beautiful, just the way I have always pronounced it.

 

[Aquari]

[Nunnafinga]

I pronounce his name as "Bo Diddley".

 

[JWBear77]

[papyrus]

I've always pronounced it as 'Bow'

 

[~Unicorn~]

Like "bow".

Oh i didn't realize this thread was old lol please don't kill me...

 

[Twisterheart]

I've always said it like beautiful. I know that's not right, but I can't bring myself to say it the other way.

 

[~Unicorn~]

I'm assuming people pronounce beau as in "beautiful" because they don't know French :^)

 

[Hanami]

I pronounce it as 'bow' as in the accessory, not the verb

 

[Pancake225]

BEE Y EE W
But I'm pretty sure it's bow.

 

[Lackadaisy]

Yea, like "bow"

lol Just realized how old this thread is. But still, bow xD

 

[EKB]

Beau, would be pronounced as "bow" to me because I take French classes, and Beau directly translates to "handsome"

[Garrett]

It's like bow, or go.

Didn't y'all take even basic french in school?

 

[Jadeth]

Not everyone takes French classes. But yes, it is Bow. (Five years of French lessons and I know practically nothing..)

 

[Rabirin]

It differs. Sometimes I say Beau as in beautiful and other times I call him Bow. I usually slip up and call him Beau since I was so used to calling him that before somebody told me it was actually Bow. The same thing with Genji too. I'd call him Jenji instead of Genji. I think either one is fine though, but since Bow is the correct way I try to call him that.

 

[HungryForCereal]

BEAU-tiful.

 

[AppleBitterCrumble]

I say byew because I feel like that sounds more correct

 

[BerybyllNathan]

I say Beau like 'Bo'. How it's meant to be pronounced. It's french for beautiful.

 

[Feraligator]

Bow.
