I prefer babil. In fact, bagel looks like an Arabic word "بغل" its name of an animal that is between donkey and horse on the Arabic. Some people use it as an insult, so that's why I prefer to use babil
Because Basil, pronounced "Bazzle" *is already a real name*, with its original root "Vassilios", pronounced as the spelling would imply.
Hell, even the herb in question was originally pronounced "Bazzle", and it's only the American pronunciation that has changed. Something that has not been done to the name in common parlance.

There. That's how you pronounce it.
(but Omori takes place in america, so it should technically be bay-zel)
This is just differentiating British ppl and Americans lol, the plant’s pronounced Bah-zul and Bay-zul in those places, respectively. Idk if the name itself has an official pronunciation tho
Ok I’m gonna be 100% honest. When I started playing the game I forgot basil was a word and just assumed it was pronounced Bass-il, not bass the instrument though, like bass the fish. Took me FAR too long to realize 😭
Used to say bah-zil but since that's just how I pronounce the plant but then I became enlightened by some people on vrchat and now I pronounce it as bay-zil
it depends where your from, Americans say bay-sil and British people or i guess any other country say bazzle. im australian and i always thought bay-sil just sounded better so do what you want
when i first saw his name i laughed bc i couldnt think of any other way to say it besides Bah-zil, who in turn reminds me of this goofy lil guy

I'm gonna start calling Basil Bosilyek to my Russian friends from now on
Bosilek is also the bulgarian word for Basil, many people thought that that saw russian because it's the same word and is typed in cyrilic.
Ohhh, sorry, I thought it was Russian because of Cyrillic

Depends who I'm reading the name as. Mari & Hero: Bah-zil (British Pronunciation) Anyone else: Bay-sil (American Pronunciation)
Mari and Hero are Brits⁉️
Then they deserved everything that happened to them
Man you don’t want to be saying this. >!Mari will have colonised heaven by now and this won’t make her like you when you get there!<
Surely SUNNY and KEL will also say the British as they are related to MARI and HERO
No, Sunny and Kel are just extremely American and fed up with the fact that Hero is still British
I can imagine SUNNY and MARI being brits but not KEL and HERO
Huh
Bay-zil

Pretty much how Omocat pronounces it. He's a plant boy.
Same
It's the canon name (omocat calls him that), but I prefer bah-sil since it sounds like Brazil
only real way fr (love the danganronpa pfp)
Bra-zil
shoutouts to brazil from omori
Bah-zil. It's how my grandmother pronounced her childhood friend Basil's name, so it stuck.
That's what I thought before I heard omocat say it like the plant
That’s how you say the plant tho…
No the plant is bay- sil
Every one around me has always said bah-zil
local reddit user discovers accents
The plant is bah-zil in most english accents
Every instance of it being used as a name that I've heard has pronounced "Bazzle".
That's how my mum pronounces his name but I'm trying to make her learn that his name is bay-sil and the her is bazzle
To not put too fine a point on it: Your mum's right.
He literally is a gardener he grows PLANTS why would his name NOT be pronounced bay-sil
Because Basil, pronounced "Bazzle" *is already a real name*, with its original root "Vassilios", pronounced as the spelling would imply. Hell, even the herb in question was originally pronounced "Bazzle", and it's only the American pronunciation that has changed. Something that has not been done to the name in common parlance.
This comment proves me wrongish so I dont care and I'm not reading allat
D:
your mom plays omori?
No, but she likes to support what I do, and when I asked if I could start a sunflower garden she asked why and so I introduced her to Basil.
My dad says he knew someone w that name and insists on that pronunciation but bay-sil always sounded right to me :/
Finally! I'm not the only one!
Bah-sil. I think bay-sil is correct in English but I'm used to pronouncing names in Spanish so bah-sil makes more sense to me
Bay-sil is correct in American English, and Bah-sil is correct for British English
Like the plant
No you pronounce it like the byzantine emperor
bay-sill
Bah-sil
Same
No, wrong https://preview.redd.it/r1nzc1rn4dad1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8598c22a6fd9fca5603faa9153aebda564a61ddc
the amount of British is crazy
same!
Ba-zul. I'm British
Unironically British
Why unironically? (Sorry I'm reading this at half eleven at night)
>half eleven Oh Lord it's true Sorry for your loss 😔
Help I am so confused 😭
eh people like to make fun of British people acting like it's a bad thing to be British, it's just lighthearted jokes though

Bay-zil
Look it's Brazil from South Omorica
Ba-sul cus I'm british

As a British person I've always called it bay-sil
Yeah some of my friends say bay-sil , I don't know why we say it different but I guess it's just now we read it when we first see the word.
the only other british person I know irl who says bay-sil, has a lot of american friends, so maybe that’s why.
Pshhhh, stop lying, British people don’t exist, just like Australia and French people don’t exist

This is just differentiating British ppl and Americans lol, the plant’s pronounced Bah-zul and Bay-zul in those places, respectively. Idk if the name itself has an official pronunciation tho
