Post BuildBlitz Request
Wonderful results from BuildBlitz, but there is one short video segment I would really like to see now that the madness is over.
Can Karthik please post a short video where he teaches us how to correctly pronounce his last name? I have wondered for years how it is correctly pronounced and I never hear anyone use it. Thanks! -matto- |
Re: Post BuildBlitz Request
Ha. Karthik's name is easy to pronounce. Step 1 is to learn how to spell it. Step 2 is to slow down the first few times you say it.

Re: Post BuildBlitz Request
Just read your request aloud in the social media room here at Build Blitz. Here you go!

I think I'll just keep calling him Karthik.

Re: Post BuildBlitz Request
Karthik ain't too hard to say. Maybe that could be because I am an Indian, myself :D. Try to say Devyash, and you'll think that his name is the easier on to say :D
Anyways, It would also like to see a video about that! |

I wonder if I can convince S.W.A.T. to name this year's robot "Can-a-gas-of-Apathy" or at the very least something like "Kangalarasackthy" and see how many people point it out or try to correct it.

Jump to :12 and hear "Kanagasabapathy" flow swiftly, flawlessly, and effortlessly. There should be a competition to see who can say it faster than he can. That pronunciation does sound anglicized though, considering the origin of the name is from India, if I am not mistaken. I really want to know the true, original pronunciation, if this isn't the original way to pronounce it, which I am betting it is not. Click the link below and hit the speaker button, and hear "Karthik Kanagasabapathy" spoken in a Hindi accent. This is probably closer to the original way to say it. http://translate.google.com/#hi/hi/k...anagasabapathy |
Re: Post BuildBlitz Request
