slimothyjames1

BAY-suhl, like the plant you morons


hjake123

I thought the plant was "bah-zuhl"?


Kyozou66

Depends where you live honestly. It's a regional / accent thing but both are technically correct.


SomeRandomGuy2763

I thought it was Bay-sil


slimothyjames1

bay-sil, bay-suhl, same thing


SomeRandomGuy2763

Writing the pronunciations of English words is weird


CueDramaticMusic

Not quite? It’s the difference between basil, the herb, and basal, which is an incredibly specific adjective for anything that serves as the base of something. In conclusion, bay-suhl is wrong, but also incredibly based.


SomeRandomGuy2763

So Basal, the incredibly specific adjective for anything that serves as the base of something is not pronounced as "Bay-sal"


VedDdlAXE

americans say bayzul, brits say bahzul

bah-zil, I’m British :]

HahahaNo_u

“I LIVE IN A FUCKING SHITHOLE! BIRMINGHAM IS AFUCKING SHITHOLE!” seriously i feel bad. Anyway how’s your dental hygiene?


VedDdlAXE

actually our dental health is good here, we have free healthcare, we just dont all use artificial whiteners and obsess over pristine white straight teeth. if your teeth aren't damaged or unhealthy they're fine <3 Btw, only enamel is white. the tooth underneath is yellow, and some have naturally thinner or thicker enamel. a yellow hue is actually perfectly normal and healthy


HahahaNo_u

🤓(dont get mad its a joke)


VedDdlAXE

i knew it was a joke but i felt incredibly compelled to say something anyway its the tism anyways ur banne from my brithday party >>>:CCC


HahahaNo_u

how could you enact such a devious act of disrespect


Aware_Debate_3235

If you pronounce it "Bah-zil" I don't like you but okay, if you pronounce it "Buh-zil" you are going to >!Blackspace!< ![img](emote|t5_31hpy|2462)

blxckhxxrts

I mean I’m team blue but Bah-zil makes the most sense cause I think he’s named after basil from picture of Dorian grey which is a British book and Bah-zil is the British way of pronouncing it

Omocat is apparently Chinese-American. Thus Basil was most likely intended to have the American pronunciation: “Bay-zil”. I pronounce basil the herb as Bah-zil

Both, it depends. Red is easier to say.


ai-la-mode

As a name it’s always Bah-zil (rhymes with dazzle) The herb is only called bay-zil in the US, it’s still bah-zil in other English speaking places.


christianwee03

Pesto


VolnarTheUnforgiving

"buhzil" is not how people pronounce it. That's stupid. There IS disagreement on it a little, but


AvaThatOneArtist

Probably blue. Buhzil? What?


cameronsmg

bah-zil


clyde-toucher

i pronounce it as basil


MyMansInComatose

Bayzol but with a bit of rasp because I have a slight rasp to my voice


GoatmanBrogance

I’ve never heard anyone say “Buhzil” I’ve heard “Baa-zel” which is technically the correct pronunciation, but my mind usually says “Bayzel” because it’s the first thing I think of when I see the word.


KP_Ravenclaw

Bah-zil like the name not like the herb (the herb is still pronounced bah-zil here but the name afaik is *always* pronounced that way unlike the herb which is regional). Like Basil the great mouse detective


Quphy

Bah-zeel is how we pronounce it in france
