Guest Taoski Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Just a little firday afternoon sleepy time at work question... 1. MoDaCo - "Mow-da-co" as in "i went to mow the field" and co as in "cone" 2. MoDaCo - "Mod-a-co" as in "model" and co as in "cone" 3. MoDaCo - "Moo-da-coo" as in cow Or one i have not thought of? :) I suppose number one makes sense the most - as in "Mobile Data Consultancy"
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Mo as in Mobile Da as in Data Co as in Communications (I Think)
Guest Disco Stu Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Surely Mobile Data Corporation :?: (or Conspiracy, having read some recent threads :wink: )
Guest Skunkchild Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Well I say Mow Darko ! Fire up your lawnmowers
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 It tends to be pronounced Mow-Dar-Coe, but the CORRECT pronunciation is Mow-Day-Coe :) P
Guest Disco Stu Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 ....and which syllable are you stressing there, Paulie :?: Is it MOW-Day-Coe or perhaps Mow-DAY-Coe ? (It is POETS Day, after all :) )
Guest ferret Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Mo as in Mobile Da as in Data Co as in Communications (I Think) I'm with spacemonkey on this one, what ever Paul says :twisted:
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 It tends to be pronounced Mow-Dar-Coe, but the CORRECT pronunciation is Mow-Day-Coe It's a cultural effect... I say Mow-Dar-Coe, but in New Zealand we say pronounce Data - Darta where as the english pronounce Data - Dayta
Guest ferret Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 Well I'm Welsh and I say Mo as in MOre Da as in DArcy :?: Co as in COr blimey I sound too posh and silly saying Mow-Day-Coe :!:
Guest Coucou Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 I say Mo as in mobile Da as in dad Co as in co-operative but i'm a Northerner with flat vowels. :) Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest zeta101 Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 i say it like MOD (as in MODification) - A (as in Apple) - CO (as in Co-operative)... *waits for people to start recording themselves saying MoDaCo and uploading them*
Guest beersoft Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 I must be an idiot, i've been pronouncing it Mowdowco for 10 months it must be my accent, dropping random letters from words when i say them. later Owen "what, you dont knw about the invisible alphabet?"
