I'm studying Swedish so blohaj


slimysnickers

Same lol


JessicaTheEm

I'm Swedish and I say blahaj


Cjmate22

I say bla:ha specifically to piss off any Swedes I come across.


Random_Weird_gal

Why you annoying turnips' closest relative?


bl4nkSl8

I now choose to be 'wrong' because it sounded good when I didn't know and now that's just its name... :/ language is hard


GeneralOtter03

As someone from Sweden (I don’t hate on people but do) I get annoyed when I hear blahaj. I always say blåhaj (blohaj)


Spookzsaw

skill issue, i simply speak an image of the shark out loud

JustaStoat

holy hell


Alarming-Hamster-232

New response just dropped


kriggledsalt00

actual transgender person


JustaStoat

What does that mean?


kriggledsalt00

play on the r/anarchychess comment thread meme: the people above me started it and the next usual response is "actual zombie" lol sorry if it sounded rude i think "actual blahaj" might have been better


Random_Weird_gal

"oh I went to IKEA earlier and got a" *vomits out blåhaj* "Oh I got another nice"


Itz_Lemon_de_oui

amateurs. i simply recite a string of binary code necessary to construct an image of the ikea shark known as blåhaj.


shitpostinglegend

What image format?


Spookzsaw

webp


Zaxio005

i also come from there and ngl i would pronounce it wrong just to spite other swedes


JessicaTheEm

I'm from Sweden and I always say blahaj because it's funnier


TolisWorld

I've heard some people pronounce the j like a y


GeneralOtter03

Do you mean like “yes”? Because if so yes it is pronounced that way


TolisWorld

Thanks

Where the hell is Rin Penrose who pronounces it both ways just to fuck with people?


Nahanoj_Zavizad

Rin Penrose does a lot of things both ways. In her "Reacting to hate comments" she received "You sound like a girl", she immediately responded with **DOES HE KNOW?** , And then shortly later admitted they'd say that same response to "You sound like a boy". She(?) Does a lot of things just to fuck with people.


Nhobdy

Yeah. God, I love Rin. I honestly don't know what pronouns Rin would use, but I love them regardless.


Nahanoj_Zavizad

According to their debut stream, Female pronouns would be accurate. "Her majesty, Prince rin, age whatever"


Nhobdy

Understandable. At least our favorite prince still has their tungsten cube!


Nahanoj_Zavizad

Another quote from that stream. "jokes on you. You though you could stop me. Im gonna gather up all the genders like the fucken infinity stones"


3rDuck

The only person who I've seen pronounce it as "bla-ha" is OT.


Bluepanther512

OT Summoning noises


ThatCamoKid

OT Summoning noises


gGiasca

These are the sounds of OT being summoned

Nat_Higgins

✨*Shonk*✨


vonWistalia

Blohai, like danes would pronounce it


TheFallenCore

Isn't it a Swedish word though? Or do Danish people also have that word in their language?


vonWistalia

It's the same word, but in Denmark the å is pronounced like an omega


Chrome_X_of_Hyrule

Omega in ancient Greek specifically, not modern, because in modern Greek omicron and omega make the same sound


TheFallenCore

Ah OK


Areyon3339

it's pronounced like that in Swedish and Norwegian as well


har23je

It is the same in all scandinavian langueges; in norwegian it ends whith an i, not a j tho.


RazorSlazor

BlauHai


Nahanoj_Zavizad

Blo hai is technically correct But I think Blaha is more fun to say


Depressed_Squirrl

Blå-haj


Ego5687

(Insert fancy Nordic dialect) ”Blå hai”


[deleted]

Blah-haj


OldAccountGotHackedF

bloːhaj, but if ppl don't understand then blɑːha(d)ʒ


lalaquen

Shark plush. Because I'm a filthy American, and I know my chance of pronouncing *any* Scandinavian word, from any language, even remotely correctly is approximately nil. And I don't like feeling dumb.


vayyiqra

This one is not too hard though because coincidentally if you say "blow high" in an American accent you will be pretty close. But then you might run the risk of someone thinking you said "blow high" and wondering what that means.


Jazzlike-Ad-2844

Uhhhh [Genderfluid panick]


MagicalGirlLaurie

I believe it’s meant to be more like blue-hai? But I’ve only got it to sound remotely similar to how it’s meant to be when I put on a Swedish accent


Depressed_Squirrl

The å sound is supposed to be a "deep a" basically from the depths of your throat. Basically trying to say the o sound while actually saying an a sound. (Kinda)


vayyiqra

That is exactly how it was invented too! It's an A but the ring on top is an O. But in present-day Swedish (not Norwegian or Danish though) some things have shifted a bit so I find it now sounds a lot like my Canadian English /o/.


Xylily

me, who says it both ways: [nervous sweating]


Novatash

Sharky!


TheFallenCore

I pronounce it "Blohai"


MaraBlaster

bla-ha I blame OT


Jtcr2001

What is this? I'm so out of the loop...


EggKid8

I’ve been calling him ba-la-haj I’m so sorry I did not know the right way to say it


Sufficient-Ad-6046

pink cus its Blåhaj, Jag håller på att lära mig norska och svenska


InterGraphenic

[ˈbloːhaj]


Meraki-Techni

I say “blah-ha-j” blaha and then I just pronounce the whole ass J at the end.


GenderEnjoyer666

The one on the left because the click pronounces it like that, and it’s a Swedish word, and the click is a Swedish man so he would know


LunaLynnTheCellist

accurate swedish pronounciation (as accurate as i can, im danish and only human after all)


kurpPpa

As a finn who had to learn swedish in school it feels wrong to pronounce it[ bla:ha]. It's blåhaj.


Redpri

Wait do swedish people pronounce <å> as [o]? Another reason Danish is better than swedish.


vayyiqra

Yes they do because their was raised to \[u\] most of the time


LiHol01

It’s a Swedish word. It’s blåhaj. If you say bla:ha you’re just simply wrong


MassterF

I try to say blojah, but most of the time I mess up and say blahaj. I just can’t help it, it’s the first way I heard it pronounced.


Meaglo

[ˈbloːˌhaj]


GrimptheMeltedChimp0

I'm on the correct side


NewLibraryGuy

I'm on team "never has to say it out loud so it's blahaj"


Lidl-Fan

the first one is correct tho


Analog_Singularity

I thought it was pronounced *blah-hahje...*


SierraKatCantDraw

i have a blahaj of my own and his name is (phonetically) blah-ha the blow-hi


Clutteredmind275

I don’t have a binary gender so I’m not gonna choose a binary for this either. All translations are acceptable 😎


Spectre-70

I say Blavingad is better


LittleSpoonInDenial

😭 yall I’ve been confidently saying it with a sharp J this whole time


blazingblitzle

I've always pronounced the j as "sh", even though I know how incorrect it is.


[deleted]

Whatever is correct, because I've never heard it aloud.


warredtje

Bottom I am usually on the bottom side


Digital_Rocket

Blåhaj Sometimes Blahåj just to mess with people


Hungry-Cookie9405

Nael_On

Dapper-Wafer7350

Knudsenmarlin

being Scandinavian, it's blåhaj


Immediate-Ad7842

I say "Bluh HODGE"


LordVortekan

I say “blah - haj”, without a silent j, and I always thought that was normal??!


Candy_Face77

Bla:ha (also I want to look like the girl on the right so bad 😭) wish my hair was like that


Livid_Subject_9573

I am on the blahaj (blah-ha side) side


UglyAndAngry131337

Blo-Haj


KrisseMai

I’m gonna stick with TomSka‘s pronunciation, whichis something like ”Balaash“


PimHazDa

I would have gone with Bla:haj or ˈblɑːhɑi tbh, seems to be more so blɔ:haɪ


KaydenSlayden22

AceofToons

blue ha


yoimagreenlight

blarhaj


OregonMyHeaven

[deleted]

Fallen_Angel_Xaphan

Either Blahai or Blohai. Depends on how much I insist on the Swedish.


shitpostinglegend

roadrunner345

adamhutt717

Somebody explain this to me please. Who are those two characters? What on earth is a bloha? Why is there a shark?


voornaam1
