Character Name Pronounciation
« on: May 09, 2004, 06:40:06 am »
I have started this thread because me and certain other people have become aggitated because people cannot pronounce our names precisely
so, how is your characters name meant to be pronounced?
please use proper english words or single letters

here is mine:

Errion: Air - \"E\" - on (not like \"on\" but more the sound in \"honk\")

Can\'t use non-english letters? Meh, I could simply paste the way my nick is pronounced from Merriam Webster :rolleyes:
Saint:
sAnt. The A is pronounced like the A in \'ace\'. (this part is actually taken from MW)
Nuclear:
ny-oo-klea-er (emphasison the nyook)

Edit: Heh, this thread actually is meaningful... Always thought Xanaroth\'s X is pronounced \'za\'

\"Ale\" as in, the delicious alchaholic stuff in kada\'s tavern ;) and \"yuh\" as in yuh huh. Simple right? Well maybe not >_> :P

Don\'t think I need to explain the princess part.

Always use your own mind instead of blind faith to decide if it makes sense..
