Jaa.
Yes in japainese.
There are normal bionicle names?
I think that all the bionicle names are weird,
Reidak and Radiak, it sounds like a 5 year old liked the first name and changed it slightly so it was his own
Even though itās a mask donāt forget Kakama
Reidak and Radiak. Not particularly strange, just a bit irrationally anger-inducing.
Am I the only one who has not had pronouncilliation trouble with bonkle names?
No, because my mother language happens to use a phonetic alphabet.
How dare you!! Bingzak is a beautiful name! /s Also I think these are the strangest ever, Agarak, Udapo, Owa, Epolim, Kerato, and Mamuk
I korgot the PoEās name.
Axalara. Always thought it was āaggs-ALL-are-ahā
But according to @Eljay, in his epic recap review its āAxe-ah-lar-aā.
Course, with my way it makes sense why there arenāt any axes on the ship.
Gadunka sort of sounds like the name to some snack accompanied by some dipping sauce. I donāt know
Mahri
Muwaka
Boxor
Kalmah
Carapar
Those are off the top of my head.
Hewkii isnāt that weird, but the way itās spelled sure is. I know it used to be Huki, but I didnāt when I was five, and I thought it was Hyoo-Key. (It doesnāt help that I have a relative named Hugh so I heard that name a lot)
They named a fruit in one of the G2 books, I just remember it being long and repetitive.
Nuhrii
Ahkmou
Orkahm
Vhisola
Tehutti
Ehrye
These names have some of the weirdest spellings Iāve ever seen.
Which is why I mispronounced almost every single one of them as a kid and still do
Nuhrii - Ner-ree (correct: Noo-ree)
Ahkmou - Awk-mao (correct: Awk-moo)
Vhisola - Veez-ola (correct: Viss-ola)
Tehutti - Tew-tee (correct: Tu-hootee)
Ehrye - Ee-ree (correct: Air-yee)
Seriously how does Lego expect kids to pronounce these names that were never spoken out loud? The only way they would know is if they got the Bionicle Encyclopedia! And where did they even come up with these?
I know this topic is old, but I have thought about this recently.
Iāve never seen those names as nearly identical. Similar, yes, but not nearly identical.
Onewa is On-Ay-Wah Or On-ee-wah
Onua is Oh-Noo-Ah
A bunch of people have pronounced Onewa like On-ew-a, which makes it sound like Onua, but I think the E in this case sounds different than how people think it sounds.
The reason they do though is because the U sound followed by the A sound in Onua makes a sound similar to a W. But in Onewa, thereās an actual W sound. Itās the difference (or maybe inaccuracy) in how people pronounce the O and the N (Ohn instead of Ahn) and un-stress the E in Onewa that makes it sound like Onua.
