Pronounciations

[Vilhem]

Wow. I leave you guys for twenty-four hours and this thread explodes...

I wonder if someone wanted to go through all the game's spoken cutscenes and pull out the official pronunciations used by the voice actors? That's the stuff that lays down the law on this subject.

I already have haha. A lot of names don't get spoken, but the ones I remember off the top of my head are Papalymo, Nielle, F'lhaminn and uh...that's all I can remember. >_>

Of note is F'lhaminn also being shortened by Nielle to "Lhaminn", pronounced Lah-mean.

Khrimm is pronounced "Crim", as in crimp without the p.

Gridania is pronounced Grid-ahn-nya.

Rhalgr is pronounced Wral-ger, with emphasis on the Wral.

E-Sumi, is eh-sue-me.

Nielle is simply Neil.

That was all I got.

Oh yeah forgot about those. As for "Laminn", I think that was more a booboo on the voice actor's part haha. If you look at that cutscene from the beta release (there's a few on youtube), the subtitle actually reads "Lhaminn". I'm guessing later they added the F', or booboo'd it from the start and were unable to get the voice actor to rerecord or something.

With Krimm, the pronunciation I thought was pretty straight forward. There's no p, so not sure why you'd mention that o_o

Good call on E-Sumi though, I'd forgotten about that one.

Or there is something about kitty names we don't properly understand yet.

Just a comparison with another word people would know.
