Code Geass

OK, srsly, 'geas' is pronounced ɡɛʃ, as in... gesh (see the footnote).

Many people pronounce the title as ' Code Geese', because it's spelt 'geass' and saying 'gay ass' is just terrible. The Japanese seiyuu pronounce it 'gee-ahsu'... which is also wrong. In terms of the Irish, that is.

Geass is another form of geas, or geasa, or geis. Wiki it. Irish roots, it's an obligation/prohibition.


So~ how to refer to it?

Code Geese? Code Gay Ass? Code Gee-aaaaaaaaaaah-SU!

Maybe it's more like Code Guess?

Footnote:
g: get, go, guard
ɛ: bed, net, dress
ʃ: she, sugar, machine
