You do have a Canadian accent! Not the overdramatized "aboot" but you do have some in there. That just made me giggle.

But, anyway, I totally understand what you mean with mispronunciations. And, I'll admit, I've been mispronouncing "paraka" the entire time I've been aware of it.

See, if you hadn't made this voice post I'd have carried on thinking it was pronounced the other way :)

Hah! I was also mispronouncing your name. That shall now be fixed in my mind!

And that is a beautiful header btw and what I would give to be able to live there.

:P I know that I've sometimes been jarred when I listen to voice posts and hear peoples accents. I'm glad I could make you giggle.

*sigh* That's what happens when you make languages up, no one knows the phonetic rules but you. :P
I'd be really curious as to how to pronounce *your* name. I *know* I've been mispronouncing it.

:P I know, everyone does. I'd say I'd answer to both, but I always find it really weird when people call me Paraka at all, so I can't say as I answer to either.

That's what happens when you choose a name from a language that you made up, you're the only one who understands the phonetics :P

:D Thanks! I really like it too. scifijunkie made it, it's stealable so long as you credit her (she made a few different headers if you want something slightly different).

A-ha! It's vaguely ethnic in nature (I was giving it the white pronunciation instead of a more Spanish style pronunciation, which seems more accurate). That always trips me up when things could go either way.

It was awesome of you to make a voice post for this. And you seem pretty awesome all the way around. Would you mind if I friended you?

[paraka]

:P I don't speak Spanish, like at *all*. I can fake French though, maybe that was it...

Also, friend away, I'll friend back, I'm always looking for new people, especially since there are only like 10 SGA people on my flist, and that's all I seem to talk about :)
