24hoursfromtulsehill Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I reckon its got to be Hothey, which is exotic. Hothey Baxthter Bebe. Besides, the Anglicised version surely has to be Josey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I don't know who Josey Wales is, but it's not the first one. His teachers at school called him Jose with a hard J and I'm sure he'd have put them right if it was otherwise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KurtAndrew Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I pronounce it as Jose with hard 'J', or Jo for short Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His teachers at school called him Jose with a hard J and I'm sure he'd have put them right if it was otherwise! This is about correct usage, not actual usage, whether by the man himself, his teachers or Uncle Tom Cobleigh. Why else would anyone set up a poll?

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Ah, so you meant 'how do you pronounce Jose?' rather than 'how do you pronounce Jose?'. Yes. And if I hadn't put this thread up, there'd be a Philliskirk in/out poll, or someone would be slagging off Furman or Simpson in the style of a main stand season ticket monkey.

bryn2424 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 And it wouldn't matter in Shaw, as they go off sounds rather than letters of the, "alphabet." In Shaw we'd call him "John" or "thieving scouse tw*t" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
