Dont forget that a buch of us are not english spokers, hearing you saying "mandabolae, blah, blah, blah, blah!!!!" has no effect at all, except, perhaps, a reply in spanish ;)

A good point which will probably get less attention than it deserves.  I for one will keep it in mind.

And for Mandoble... blah blah blah. ;)

The best method for alerting teammates to danger is to call for a break turn. This is due to the time wasted while the friendly looks behind. The difference may decide if he lives or dies. Therefore, I never say "check six". Instead, I tell you what to do.


Memorize this English phrase: "Break right" or "Break left".

Example:

"Mandoble, Break right now!!!"

You don't look, you just break hard. This greatly increases your chance of survival, as those precious few seconds are not wasted looking for the con. This does, however, require trusting in teammates and solid judgement on the part of the person calling for the break.

My regards,

Widewing

I can read/write/speak english. But I'm still waiting the first english spoker that  pronounce correctly his own lenguage :p

For non english spokers that is a big difference, we are used to understand the words spelled one way and SLOW, OUT AND LOUD, louder/slower the better. English has too many words that sound almost the same with very different meanings, too many monosilabes, it is too dependant on  the context, you loose a word and you loose everything.

But the most irritating thing is that english spokers has no idea of how to pronounce "MANDOBLE", so the first part of the sentence has no meaning at all for me even if I understand the "break right" or whatever ;)

Uh! And pray for not hear me speaking english fast ... ... it is worse than the final stage of a SerieB film.

Hehe...

"Man'-duh-bl" is how I would pronounce it. It is a derivation of the english word "mandible", or the lower jaw of an animal. It may have a different meaning, derivation, and pronunciation in Spanish, but I'm pretty confident in my usage of my native language. ;)

Hehe, can't help it, foreign guy telling me I'm speaking my language improperly... There is proper english and colloquial english, or more appropriately, conversational and written english.  In english for instance, contractions are commonly used in conversation, but are generally to be avoided in proper written form. The same phenomena occurs in many languages, probably spanish, too.

Some 3,000 miles separates our eastern and western coasts, and we have probably 275 million people. We include people from cultures all over the world, and we have several dialects. This is not an homogeneous country with respect to the cultures we include, so naturally you will see differences in speech.

It sounds just like its written "MAN-DO-BLE", in english it, probably, will sound like "MAN" (like man) "DO" (like DO of done) "BLE" (BL of bleed and E of Elephant).

"Mandoble" means something like "claymore", and no Kieran, that is not the pronunciation, it sounds really different.

About millions of people speaking english, zillons of miles separating them, etc, same occurs with spanish, but never foud a case like a friend of mine living in S.Carolina having problems to understand some relatives in N.Carolina.

I'd pronounce mandoble like "Man-Doh (like Homer Simpson DOH!)-Bull.  In English anyway.  And Kieren is correct, in English a "mandoble" is the lower jaw.  I think that is how it is spelled at least lol.   Hows it pronounced in Spanish?

Still waiting on how you say the above in Spanish Mandoble :).

I know a little bit of Spanish, enough to get the gist of a normal conversation.  Problem I have with Spanish is like the problem Mandoble has with English- too many dialects where one word means different things, or there are different words for the same thing, depending on who you are talking to (I.E. someone from Central America vs someone from Spain).

Does anyone know how to say 'Check 6' in Spanish?  If I knew how to say behind you I could tell someone to look behind them lol.

hehe Urching, good attempt.
The "Doh" may be correct, but not finishing it with "H". The "Bull" is totally mistaken.

"BLE", use BL from soemthing ending in "BLAIR" and use the "E" from the E of "ZEKE".

English impresses me more each day. How "Manduhbl" may sound like "mandoble" or "mandohbull", why are these vocals and consonants there? to have the same resultant sound???

Personally, I've been in a lot of central and south american countries and never had a single conversation problem with them, even when speaking extremely (I mean really EXTREMELY) fast.

About "check six" in spanish you can try "A TUS SEIS!!", or even simple "Nickname SEIS". And please, dont make me to elaborate some ugly word that has the "SEIS" pronunciation in english ;)

'mandabolae, blah, blah, blah, blah!!!!"'

Except for the O in there- I'd pronounce what you just typed Man-Da-Ble, which is pretty close to what you said might be the English pronunctiation that you don't understand.  Lol.. maybe you should change your handle to "Sam" or something :D.

On an interesting, or perhaps not so interesting note- when I was in KG200 I was squaddies with a guy named Tachel.  Now, I figured this was pronounced Ta-Shell.  He said he wanted it Tac-Hell.  He was in the canadian AF and repaired helicopters.  I dunno, just a stupid little story lol.
