Hey, a quick question. A friend and I have been arguing over how one is supposed to pronounce "moe". We decided that we would settle it by asking you guys.

So is it pronounced "moh-ay" or just "mo" like the name?
Or is there another way and we're both wrong?

>> No.9964091

It's mo.

If you ever hear "Moh" "Ee (long E)" then it is just someone trying to be cute and adding a y sound to a word, like "Joey" (except it would be moey). Generally because said faggot bases their pronunciation off of girl-talk.
