    Re: Charvel.Carvel, Sharvel

    "Kaler" is the way I say it. Man, this reminds me of the kids in school...and the people at work. "How the hell do you pronounce your name?" I swear I've been questioned so many times that I don't even know the "actual" way to say my name anymore because I've been trying to explain it since grade school. I say if you get it almost right the first time, stick with that [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

        I've gotten Ear-Fan, Ir-Fan, Ir-faun, Ear-faun....I think at one point I was so tired of explaining it (at age 8, that's how long I've been doing this) I told people to call me Jack [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

          Shall-er or Shay-ler?
          Kall-er or Kay-ler?
          SHAR-vul or shar-VEL?

          I say Shay-ler, Kay-ler, and shar-VEL.

            I've always pronounced it Shar-vel. But I doubted it once when I saw one of Wayne's web videos, where he seemed to pronounce his own name as Char-vel. (As in char-broiled.) [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

              please tell us how you got into this tiff over the correct pronunciation...I can't see how that sales tactic would ever work...but I do find it funny

              Oh just some know it all kid I had never seen there before, tried to impress me with his expertise on everything, actually, he was saying Carvel, and I told him that the correct way was Sharvel, but I thought that Wayne went by Char vel, but to tell the truth I wasn't sure thats why I posted this.

                The correct pronounciation for Shaller would probably be like "Shuller", since it's a German company (I studied German for five years during high-school, but it's almost all lost to me now...). [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

                          When I'm sober it's CHarvel and when I'm wasted it's Sharvel. Damn! I said the word too many times in a row, now it's lost all meaning and they all sound wrong, lol

                          You usually have problems spelling correctly also, so THAT'S the reason there also? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                            All right, how about Ovangkol? (wood used for the back & sides of the Taylor 414ce). I say Oh-VAHN-kl, but a sales guy said it's OH-ven-kall.

                            I'd like to just buy a 714ce, since I can say Rosewood just fine, but coming up with the extra grand is even harder than pronouncing Ovangkol. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
