Yeah, that's more like it. My bad. I haven't spoken french in a while and a soft "son" ( the french word for his) is what I heard when quickly pronouncing it under my breath so people around me in the bus don't think I am some kind of crazy. Anyway, saying it out loud it's indeed closer to the french word cent.
The funniest part is using those exaggerated accents while speaking the language can actually help native speakers understand you better.
You'll always have a foreign sounding accent but the accent is part of the word so if your not at least somewhat faking an accent your not saying the word correctly.
You just gave me a flashback to an ESL class where one of my classmates was being a little shit, and decided to mockingly take on the most over-the-top English accent he could manage while reading aloud.
... Well it actually worked quite well and the teacher was pleased lol.
It's a pun. "Space" in French is "espace" - it's more of a schwa+s than "a+s" so "eSpace" is the everyday French word espace but with a capital S to make a visual pun on e- prefix for electronic.
it'd be like calling an online property maintenance service eState (estate like property + electronic state for maintenance)
