sip-u-natejhondo said:Could someone phonetically write "cypionate" for me so I don't sound like a dip shit when I talk to my doc? Is it sipe-yun-ate or sip-yun-ate or neither one?
Thanks.
jhondo said:Thanks, brahs! And thanks for the vote of confidence, hyp1, though I don't know if it's deserved. That is unless it's normal to watch Forrest Gump and think, "I don't know, he seems pretty normal to me."

samoth said:Since your getting different answere (how do you people omit the "i"?):
cypionate (testosterone cypionate·i·o·nate) (sip´e-o-nāt) USAN contraction for cyclopentanepropionate.

Don't fret over pronunciation. People from different countries pronounce things differently, and doctors are used to this.

thats how I say it to.OMEGA said:sip-io-nate
OMEGA said:see I WAS right

samoth said:Yes and no. We're generally limited by the characters we can type, so I don't really know how you personally pronounce "io", "i-o", "cyp", or "sipe". Unfortunetly, I don't know how to easily type an upside-down letter "e" or a middle-english "s", so we're rather limited without a phonetically correct dictionary response.

CremasterBlaster said:I talked to an HRT consultant in Florida (I live in NY) and I said sip-EYE-uh-nate the whole conversation and he was saying SIP-uh-nate (don't know how to type a "schwa" ).......always kinda confused me too since then
EDIT: I think either is fine, but how the hell do you get "Sharday".....out of "SADE"

This has been a test of the BC Retard Alert Network. If this had been an actual Retard Alert there would've been a brief description of the actual stupidity of this thread's question(s). It would then be followed by a witty retort flaming thread poster's extremely low IQ and possibly insults directed at his masculinity and girlfriend and/or mother. This was only a test. Repeat: This was only a test. (pun intended)
BC Retard Alert Test Standing Down.
We will now resume to our usual thread posts.

blut wump said:On a related note, astronomers have found a huge hole in the universe around a billion light years in size, apparently devoid even of the indicators attributed to the allegedly-fictional dark matter. Maybe there are regions with minimal gravity.

samoth said:Interesting. I wonder if we can calculate the probability of such a hole of this size given spacial expansion dictated by the Friedmann equations? Perhaps vast, sparse H2 regions can exist that never compactified into appreciable masses or something.
I bet Nathan would find this of interest, too.

jhondo said:While it may be true that my IQ is well down into double digits and in fact may be bordering on retardation, or even possibly idiocy, I now know how to pronounce the word "cypionate" correctly when I did not before. At least this shows an apparent ability to learn.
If you'll excuse me, I have to go to homeandgarden.com and find out how to use a hammer.
