Hard to say, since English isn't a tonal language. It would depend on how you said it. Have you seen Microsoft Bing? - Second tone (rising) I don't care for M

Hard to say, since English isn't a tonal language. It would depend on how you said it.
Have you seen Microsoft Bing? - Second tone (rising)
I don't care for Microsoft Bing. - Fourth tone (falling)
Microsoft goes BING! - First tone (Kinda like singing)
I can't think of a way to make it do the third tone, which is kind of like the long falling then rising sound you make when somebody say "Yeah.....", as in "Yeah..... but it's still Microsoft."
- pierrefar 17y agoThanks. For some reason, I think I know exactly what you mean re how to pronounce each tone. I usually say "bing" to rhyme with "ping" as in "ping news.ycombinator.com".
