it's actually a japanese word, basically meaning "big spill"

japanese is phoenetic, so any japanese word in western characters (romaji) is very easy to pronounce.

"bu" is pronounced like "boo"
the a sound in "ka" is like "jaw"
the double kk means there's a slight pause before the next syllable is pronounced
"ke" is like the kay sound in "okay"

so to put it all together: "bookaw-kay" and the - denotes a small pause before you pronounce the last syllable.

so yeah, buck-ache is definitely wrong :klol:
