*OoS* Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 This is what my mate just Facebooked: Dear Dictionary.com, I've been informed that, because Matt Fucking Bellamy pronounces something a certain way that we are all wrong. I know, I thought it sounded like bollocks too but apparently not. Don't worry, I'm still with you! Forever faithfully, [edited out] I commented: Prove me wrong, bitch! Send them the YT and ask the Oxford English Dictionary! I'm more than happy to concede that Matt said it wrong, but she won't do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*OoS* Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 I think I'm misunderstanding something. Well everyone seems so impressed by it, talking about it loads and saying he told us how to say it. I assumed he was thus correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calliope. Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 I think there is a British and Amercian pronunciation. So he might be saying it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t.gypsy Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 when it comes to matt i dont think it matters how he says or does things he is right in the end and nothing can ever be wrong.

The fact that he pronounced it like that is still pretty amazing...because I still can't pronounce it like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tofu Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 There are two pronunciations. Matt's pronunciation is closer to the British one, but it's still not correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopix Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 It's the wrong pronunciation. The double cc is pronounced "Flocksee" and the 3rd c is pronounced softly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
