But then, technically, most people'd say Tori wrong, because you use an R in the middle, when its more like a mix of R and L, and not a great deal of Westerners can pronounce that...

It definitely is hard to pronounce the Japanese "R". My teacher gets on me about it all the time, but I just cant do it right D:

On another note, I CAN pronounce Japanese Rs. Just sorta, roll it off the tong, getting the tongue closer to the roof of the mouth so it sounds harder...
Q = QUAKER OATS
Three rules of Q - 1. Qegola and Quarantine both start with Q. 2. There is no U in Qegola. 3. Qegola is you new god.

Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that Hampa's from somewhere up there in Scandinavia.... So why are you all trying to pronounce it all Japanese-like? o-O
