What the heck does this Gary guy know? Lol, maybe the accent? Or better bet I'm saying it wrong.

Lol I couldn't believe I did either but listen to Mr. Yammamoto......I think it's more his accent but who knows.

I pronounce it "fish catching worm".

...BIC pen....after all, when he came up with the design, didn't he model it after a BIC pen? I thought I saw a vid with him explaining that anyway......IDK, I could be reaching here...

I actually say stick bait lol

It's “dinger”

 

…but really, if it was meant to be pronounced “sinko” they’d have spelled it that way  

 

How about this:

 

 

Fat “ee-ka” or Fat “eye-ka” ?

Well, it's not spelled "Sanko" either.

"Go to the post office, then go to the store"

 

"Then go"

 

g --> k = "Then ko"

 

th --> s: "Sen ko"

 

Move the K to the end of the previous syllable: "Senk o"

 

"Senko"

 

Or, if you like: "Jenga"

J--> s: "Senga"

G-->k: "Senka"

A-->o: "Senko"

That galldurn foreign fish bait...

That's how I say it

This reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend from WI regarding the pronunciation of crappie. He said "croppie" as most of the country does. I pronounced it the southeastern "crappy". He laughed at mine and told me it's not pronounced that way. I said "Spell crop for me and spell crap for me."

I pronounce it "zinkerz"

SENKO

 

I'm latino and in Spanish the "e" has only one pronunciation it's the natural to pronounce it.

I say Dinger as well

I say it Sane-Ko

I go with fluke stick

The main senko-style worm I really use is the Strike King Zero, so I usually just call them "Zeros."  If I do say it though, I'll naturally pronounce it "sinko."  I will concede, however, that it probably should be pronounced "saynco."

Saynko.

 

Senko.
