Title: Harrow to Har-row
Post by: dancetothedrummersbeat on October 11, 2012, 11:56 PM: When talking to bmx'er young or old, do not believe all you are told...
Names get changed, brands do too, some standardisation is long overdue....

1. Haro. Is it pronounced 'harrow' (as in the place), or 'har-row'?
2. Decals. Is is 'decals' (with a short e), or 'deecals' (long e)?

I use 'har-row' and 'deecals'.
Discuss.

Post by: griff on October 12, 2012, 10:21 AM: I always pronounced them 'harrow' and 'deckals' since there's only one e
I know bob pronounces it har row but then he is from the USA
After looking it up online it seems I was wrong about decal, but given my age and stubbornness I'll probably carry on as before
