How to pronounce Buddhist
lobster
Crusty Veteran
As far as I am concerned Buddhist is pronounced Bud (as in bud light, a form of pre-shine flower, friend) and heist as in 'stolen friend'. Thereby denoting how our true Buddy Nurture has been grafted away ...
Similar Ms Conceptions exist eg.
Some believe hist is pronounced in parceltongue ... hissed
Bu is pronounced Boo! as in wake up ...
Many mantra have not yet been translated into pigeon inglish. Can you help?

What accent of English do you have? I am in awe of your ability to pronounce human phonemes at all through your maxillipeds, Lobster.
I ask, because in the accent I know, Bud-heist would sound the same as "Bud, iced."
On a good day: Bhu-dissed.
On a bad day: And this is any of your business, because...?
several pronunciation of Buddhist:
Just a few are:
Hello
Welcome
Friend
Gratitude
Understanding
Enabling
Encouraging
Good Friend
Enduring
Bud-ist
This is how I pronounce Buddhist
I usually go with ‘boo-dist’
Too American?
Bood as in hood & Hissed as in pissed = Buddhist
Not sure if that's different then how @federica and I pronounce it.
Bhu-dissed
I guess I stress the h a bit more like you though
Very similar
Tee Hee.
Was looking to translate Mantra not obsess about buddy high sam antics ...
eg.
OM MANI PADME HUM
Erm (pause for ever)
Many (all Buddhism)
PAD ME (Protect the Dharma)
ho HUM!
Well, pick and choose, Lobster!
You've got your el vi ra mantra (Vairocana Buddha is a consummate fanboy): El vi ra hūṁ khaṁ, mistress of the dark, vaṁ! Oṁ Cassandra Peterson svāhā!
You've got the Ha rap pan mantra from Mañjuśrī bodhisattva (along with a delightful masala promissory): Oṁ a ha rap pan cha na, vrūṁ, 45 minutes or free!
You've got Kṣitigarbha bodhisattva's Hahayāna mantra which he is very proud of (lovingly stolen by Venerable Brahm): Oṁ ha ha ha, dis mine, eh?, svāhā!
The list goes on.
There are also non-Buddhist mantras. The Jedi of the world chant Jedi jedi pārajedi pārasaṁjedi, float the sofa! and they say it floats.
^^ Priceless! ^^
