By the way, it's "Toh-Kee-Yoh Mah-Roo-Ee".

 

Last time I met someone who said "Toh-Kee-Yoh Maw-Ree" I gave him a hatchet wound to the face.

 

Its either "toh kee yoh mah roo ee" or "toh kee yoh mah du ei"... the Japanese pronounce the "ru" as either "ru" or "du"... but the most proper way is to roll your tongue for the "ru"..

 

i took Japanese :D

Actually it's To-kyo Ma-ru-i

Also, there is a 'du' in Japanese so I wouldn't advise deliberately pronouncing it as such for obvious reasons.

 

Edit:

For clarification, "Tokyo" is 2 syllables, not 3.

 

...

 

that's how you write it in roomaji... its the same as I said... but whatever... No use in arguing over pronunciations in this thread..
