1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. This is probably a no brainer for lots of people I've always avoided sayin YO-SD out loud because I really don't know how to say it. Do you say each letter individually or is it yo-s-d which is the way I've been saying it. And does anyone know whether the letters are supposed to stand for something.

    6. Luts: On the Luts page below is written "루츠"(돌). So it seems like they named it "loots" (doll). Nevertheless I always pronounce Luts like "nuts"... :sweat

    7. I use both variants for Luts (rhyming with nuts when I think or speak about this company in English and rhyming with puts when I think or speak about it in Russian), lol.
      Soom - like doom.
      Iplehouse - pplhaus.

    9. I say "loots" for Luts (that's how it was said to me that first time), ipplehouse for Iplehouse... hm... for Yder, I tend to think of it as ider (not as in "eye" but like the I in simple). I also say Soom, like zoom, and latidoll is like when the doctor says "say ah".

      Soom like "doom".
      Lati as "lah-tee".

    13. Hahahaaa xD This made me change my way of thinking about companies and names. D:
      This is pretty much how I say them. xD ....I'm so wrong.

      Luts- Cuts
      Iplehouse- Eye pull house
      Soom- Boom
      Unoa- Ooh no-ah
      Bobobie- pretty much bo bo bie
      Leekeworld- lee-keh-world
      LaTidoll- lah-tee-doll
      Crobidoll- crow-bi-doll
      Feeple- Fee-pull
      Volks- Folks
      MiniFee- Mini-Fee
      Migidoll- mi-gee-doll
      Cian- Shi-an
      Homme- Hom, long o sound.
      Yder- yi-der, though the 'I' part of 'Yi' is more or less silenced.

    14. Hmm o.o I'd have to say Luts rhymes with nuts for me...

      And I have a good one~! Its become a bit of a boggle over at my house, but how in the world would you guys pronounce Euclase? :?

      I've heard it with a silent e, and a non silent e, *_*
       
      #234 Skymble, Mar 16, 2009
    15. You-clace.

      (in IPA it'd look like [jʊkles]) If that helps?
       
      #235 Tsuki56, Mar 16, 2009
    16. For me Luts is like "lots" ._.
       
      #236 piktorouge, Mar 16, 2009
    17. Im a little confused on the leekeworld one... I can rationalize why people say it like "leek-world", but I always say it like "leek - e - world" (e as in see), because I think the guy who founded it was named Lee Ke or something? And I cant see the "ke" being silent or attached to Lee. I DUNNO THOUGH I could be totally wrong.

    19. Normally for me it would be:
      LUTS : Say 'nuts' but replace the N with an L. (That example is like, replace Near with L 'Death Note?')
      Iplehouse : Ih-Pal-house (I think)
      Crobidoll : Crow-Bee-Doll (I think, It is just my opinon.)
      Leeshe : Leh-she
      Soom : Zoom but replace the Z with an S
      LaTi : Lah-Tee
      Aida : Ah-ee-dah
      Feeple : Feeh-pple (Say Feeble but turn the B into an P)
      Volks : Voh-lks
      Bobobie : Boh-boh-bee
      Minifee : Mini-fee
      Homme : (Korean Pronounciation) Hom-mee (English version) Home
      Unoa : Say Uno but add an A at the back
      Well thats just my opinion.
