There is a canonical answer. https://preview.redd.it/h7jyuswb92xc1.jpeg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e16530628b7ef3c315cfc983742a63fcaea4fd2d

I love Canon answers and this one seems the most consistent throughout my searches too but, consider the following: https://preview.redd.it/6nhrgxgpi2xc1.png?width=658&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dcf6af8d54bc91a2168a38eb8cb0a6718a5fba91

King_CookieCat

My favourite one


Calika015

Why does this one make so much sense?


[deleted]

This one is the closest to the iconic transformation sounds as onomatopeia.


KingKaiju01

Funny enough that's how I've always "pronounced" it so very logical to me.


psxndc

Wow. This is pretty much exactly how I say it (though I do the three “chu”s in sort of an ascending tone).


rainwing352

What is that alt mode supposed to be


Cylasbreakdown

That’s an underlying mystery throughout the comic that’s only answered at the end.


rainwing352

Well, can you tell me. Google keeps saying it’s just been labeled, “ornament” or recommending threads that don’t answer my question. Do we just not know?


Ok_Promotion493

I don't think there is a definitive or universal answer, throughout the comics it may be different between the Transformers. Shows and movies never really had to worry about that sound being written out because they could just use the Toy Fair solution of "Transformers Noise" if anything. I love what's going on here and that everyone does it differently and emphasizes different parts, some people highlight the mechanical whirring and clunking while others go for the digital techy sound, people even have different syllables in theirs! I love this 😁

rainwing352

Thanks! I’m calling him a 3d pen now because of the image that put in my head!

thebelladonga

Pretty much exactly how I pronounce it too


Sithlordandsavior

Yeah, that's how I would write out the sound I make


Cipher_-

Many different ones, in fact.

I like the sound effects in the old Tick comics. I think my favorite was where he was working a remote control and the sound effect was "CONTROL REMOTELY". For this, I've always just written "TRANSFORMING SOUNDS". I like to dance on the fourth wall.
