Dammit, I knew I forgot something in the thread tags.It’s pronounced “Lead”
Google translate says that is Haidoroshiti which just confuses things even more.The Japanese is rendering (ハイドロシティ) is, unfortunately, similarly ambiguous.
Well, you see… that…Hydro-city, but it occurred to me just now that the other way could be read as a pun on "velocity," which feels appropriate for a Sonic level.
Sonic level names are almost always bare descriptors rather than having any sort of joke or pun to them, pretty sure it's just a city that's Hydro
Hah, okay thanks. It was seriously stressing me out that this term existed and I'd never heard of it.To my knowledge it's not an actual scientific term, I was watching a YouTube video that pronounced it as poll option #1 and it was so jarring I had to pause the video and... uh, make a poll to see whether I've been wrong lo these many years.
"Sness" instead of "S N E S" still does it too but I've mostly gotten used to that one.
But if you start using "hydrocity" to describe how diluted or saturated something is and it catches on, if no further than your own labs, then I think that'd be pretty neat.
But is it "Orey-ossity" or "Oreo City"?A lot of people don’t realize that Hydrocity came out before Oreocity
Green Hill. Chemical Plant. Hydro City.
