Sorry...what?

moominpapa.bsky.social•5 days ago

I hear *that*.

conventionugly.bsky.social•6 days ago

All I can hear is, “Great Snakes!” and “Snowy!” The doctor told me I have Tintinitis.

stephenashleyellis.bsky.social•5 days ago

As someone who’s had it for 33 years, it’s pronounced tinytittyus.

Also, I find loud music helps block it out. Hmm…

Also, hyperacusis, that’s fun.

ewolkcin.bsky.social•6 days ago

I take it you don't suffer from it. I only learned how to say it when I was seeking relief from it

retired-librarian.bsky.social•4 days ago

At the ENT I pronounced it tinnitus and the doctor kept correcting me by pronouncing it tinnitus. I didn't like him so kept pronouncing it tinnitus anyway.

nlfar.neocities.org•6 days ago

its pronounced "scrweeeeeeeeee" and you say it in stereo so its only audible in the right ear

itsnotbread.bsky.social•7 days ago

The Inuit have 137 different words for it

jonathanpierce.bsky.social•7 days ago

subversivecomedy.bsky.social•5 days ago

Would you please repeat that a little louder.

miaspeople.bsky.social•6 days ago

I've heard it pronounced a couple ways and I hate mispronouncing words so I just say "my ears ring" and make them pronounce it.

robertdsullivan.bsky.social•7 days ago

seanshivers.bsky.social•6 days ago

T innit (for) us? It's very British

guillotinewit.bsky.social•7 days ago

It's probably because the riging in in your ears makes pronunciation harder.

bsdtectr.bsky.social•7 days ago
