um.. iunno if this was suppose to go under webdesign chat because I always thought there was for QUESTIONS, not chatting. =\ so any mod can move this if it's suppose to be there...

anyway, have you ever tried to say fonts outloud? I once said "vernada" i pronounced it VERRR-NAHHH-DAHHH
and my friend said it was pronounced VERRR-NAY-DAHH
I dont know which one's right, but have you ever tried to pronounce fonts before? if you did which font and HOW did you pronounce it?

*and it arial, i said it was AIR-EE-OLLL
And my friend said it was .. something but it was different than mine =\
Same with Tahoma. I said TA-HOME-AH
and she said it was .. something else, too, but i forgot.
