Pronounciations

[Denmo]

Highlander:

Der-plahn-Durh

[Vilhem]

Vilhem. Random unrelated question, were you also Vilhem in ffxi and happen to have played on what was Titan server?

Yes o_o Who are you

i always thought "Hyur" would be "Hire".

Elezen: El Eh Zen

Lalafell: should be pretty obvious.

Miqo'te: Meh Koh Te

Roegadyn: Roh Gah Din

another one that really bothers me is Paladin. Seems like another obvious one...
I've always said "Pal Uh Din" and have always heard this this way. When i hear people say "Puh Lad In" it just sounds stupid.

I don't know how you can get "hire" from hyur..it sounds really unnatural even for English only speaking folk. You're right on Paladin though. It's "Pal-Ah-din".

Probably from thinking they are two syllables.
Hy(hi as in Hyrule)-Ur (Er) = "hire".

Yes o_o Who are you

Hy = High
Ur = Er

maybe "Hyur = Higher" would have been a better example instead of "Hire". just how it seems to me.

Hee-yer and H-yur (soft H) along with some others just sound too silly and unnecessary.

edit: maybe High - Yer, idk.

[Keku]

Yes o_o Who are you.

Tlieaxu, if you remember me.

we were in an HNMLS together and I am now wondering which one it was it was so long ago... might have been more than one even...

ミコッテ - Mi-Ko-t-te
