It does for me. It's a portmanteau of voxel and libre wit the last l of the first word and first l of the 2nd word shared. If you don't pause at the caps and just roll straight through. It rolls just fine and is rather clever.

I think Libre in general is an awkward sound for me

Lee-bruh. I don't really see a problem.

[-] SurvivalMariner@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

Depends really. I say it this way, but talked to a Spanish speaker who said it was Lee-bree.

[-] chunkystyles@sopuli.xyz 6 points 7 months ago

In Spanish it would be lee-bray

As a Spanish speaker, this makes me uncomfortable. Not saying you're wrong, just... English is weird

[-] SurvivalMariner@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

Maybe I got this wrong, how would you pronounce it?

[-] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

I don't know, I'm not a native English speaker.

Lee-bruh

This is how I always sounded it in my head. Issue is, it sounds exactly like "libra"

Why? Most people's last names are more cumbersome.

[-] offspec@lemmy.nicknakin.com 1 points 6 months ago

I've not heard it pronounced, but it seems some here are verbalizing it as lee-bruh. In my head it's always been lee-bree which is just an awkward pair of syllables.
