But... there's also an actual word that is pronounced s-ow, as in a female pig.
Which makes your post a little bit ironic, guineapig.
You got me there... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I just figured since people use it as a verb all the time: "SoW me please"
it made more sense.

We say sow as in "sow the wild oats" at my house. Of all the EQers I've met in real life, only my friends from upstate NY pronounced it like the word cow.

"s-ow" to me is a female pig, so I always said "s-oh" or "sew" or however you want to spell it.

Then again, I also called Qeynos "kway-nohss," when my wife informed me it's "Key-nohss." And a number of other mispronunciations she has leet insider knowledge of.
