Zaikesman's Username Pronunciation Field Guide


OK, here's the deal: It's pronounced "Zikes'mn", not "Zakes-man" (accent on the first syllable with a long "i" and silent "a", the second syllable with a schwa "a"). Preferred 'nick-username' is Zaikes (rhymes with 'yikes').

Anybody else out there with a username having ambiguous/obscure correct pronunciation (you know who you are), here's your big chance to set us all straight!

Kan Pi is Japanese for "cheers or bottoms up" I have no idea if I spelled it right though. Maybe other Oriental languages as well.

Distortion is a name I have used many times for a number of years as my user name. The audio implications didnt really dawn on me until later.
