Armorama

I say the word like this: Armor'rama

Some says: Armor'ama

And some guys says: Amor'rama* :-)

How do you say, and how should it sound when one says Armorama?


*The word "Amor" comes from Latin and means Love. (School is profitable / Useable!)

Originally I thought the pronouciation should be something along the lines of:

Arm - o - rama

Sort of following the whole "rama" usage. Which like "Pan-o-rama" and "Di-o-rama" use the Greek root "horama" which means "sight" or "view".

But after the site was up for a while I have personally started saying it as "Arm-or-ama" similar to "Pan-or-ama".

All forms are acceptable.
