(can't remember how she says it in the anime) but going by normal Japanese sounds, it would be pronounced: Na- ru- seh- gah- wa (ru- as in rude)

Narusegawa's name would sound similar to us in English, as in Japanese. However, the Japanese language doesn't have the "r" sound English does. They roll the r's into an "l" sound. If you watch the Japanese version, it's very distinct and sounds like "Nalusegawa" but, it's spelled Narusegawa.

I agree with yazakura. If you watch anime with english subtitles, you will notice they pronounce "r" as "l".

Hold on, I think you have it backwards. Japan does have an "R" sound. It is ususally a short rolled "R". What they lack is an "l" sound. firefly had it correct. Otherwise arigato would be pronounced aligato.

I meant to say that they lack an "L" sound.- Mar 16, 2006

I seen some say Naru "seh" gaw wa....I guess I might not be sounding that out right...but is that supposed to sound like "sa" like pronounced in the name "Sasuke or Sakura" more like a "saaaaa" kinda sound. So it would be "Nah roo sa ga wa"? Thats they way I always sounded it out, but then again, I dont speak Japanese.

To clarify, in her name æ?ç?¬å·?, the 2nd character ç?¬ is pronounced the same as ã?, which in romaji is 'se' and pronounced 'seh'.
Firefly had the pronounciation correct
Edit: I guess the forums can't show kanji and hiragana T_T

I'm from holland, so I cant really say it in English phonetics. Pronounciation of words in Dutch are very close to Japanese, so we don't really have problems with it.
I think it would be cosest to: Na- ru- seh- gah- wa, and the tu as in tutorial ( or U-boot in German).- Apr 30, 2006
