How do you pronounce the Above Name?

I pronounce User Control Panel: Yoo-Zir-Cun-Trul-Pan-El.

And the AN can tell you if it's wrong or right with a /skip.

(I apologize in advance if I butcher your nation's name)
At first glance, I think I would pronounce "La xinga" as "La sing-gah", with a long "i" sound and a hard "g".
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to your first-ever sortie! Please ignore all the subtitles at the bottom of the briefing; I don't know what's causing them, and it's probably a ghost-"


"Trigger, time to show the other guys that we get wet, wild, and do dirty, DIRTY things~" Shut up, Clown.


Chartreuse is my favorite color.

No one cares what you have to saaaay!

The second way's not bad at all. Close enough

Why the r at the end of the second syllable? Is that in a non-rhotic context?
