I keep hearing all these British people on youtube saying Jor-nada, where the first syllable is pronounced like that of the country name Jordan. I always thought is was "Hornada" as in "work (day)" in Spanish which seems to make sense for a name of a PIM device/executive toy. But then, I've never known anyone who has one or even seen one in real life. Well, at least it makes more sense than the car Chevrolet No-va ("Doesn't go" ).

Either /d??o?'na.da/ or /?o?'na.da/

edit: dang, looks like IPA characters are unsupported

Sorry, this site is so old, it predates common use of UTF-8 on web pages, the database collation is in ISO format which doesn't support that part of unicode. It cannot support phone emoji's for the same reason.

It was always Jornada rather than Hornada for us and back when he had marketing contacts in HP they always used a hard, Anglicised, J.

Yep, I can confirm it was Jornada as in Jordan here in Japan. Not the Spanish way to pronounce it.

Jornada with the J as in journey?
