Egluntyne Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'd say so too...or maybe 'au' without the 'r'. We've had debates about this before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I always ask for or-bi-ose and they seem to understand what I want so it must be OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moomin Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 It's OH-BEE-OZE And BOK-ASH-EEE They always know what I mean when I go into my shop (But then again they do look at me a bit strangely ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Must be mad Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Maybe you could write the names on some paper and hand it over the counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 We say Or-be-ose as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..lay a little egg for me Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 As they are both foreign names, I suspect the feed store staff won't know how to pronounce them either, so don't worry. Just look as if you have been asking for it all your life and then they'll think its they who are not pronouncing it right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Luckily at my horse supply place they had a list the first time and I pointed to it!! I said to the girl I didn't know how to pronounce it and she said it was or-be-ose. So thats what I say now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
