It is obvious that "Sage Mode" is pronounced like you would pronounce them in English, but I see many people mispronouncing it as sa-gey as they would pronounce it in Japanese...
I actually registered just to post this, I have more friends that cannot pronounce it than friends who could... Is it just them or there's a serious misconception about this from the readers?
Sage Mode is called "仙人モード" in Japanese, which is romanized as "Sennin Modo", while in Chinese 仙 is some form of deity/immortal/god why 人 means human in general.
There's no doubt that the word "sage" is merely a translation of meaning from Japanese "sennin" and is NOT a word from the Japanese language.
