Pronunciations

[Solo]

Eye of Etlich: I uv eht-lick (I say "Lick Wand" as well...)

Now i want a big scoop of strawberry flavoured Lick Wand :lol:

Diablo: DE- AH- B- LO
Lich: same way you spell it, really :cheesy: Think 'german' :lol:

What about the Stone of Jordan for the Spanish speaking people?

Do you pronounce Jordan as y(or possibly ll)ordan, or like it's pronounced in Spanish?

I'm only in Spanish I, I don't know all of the sounds very well.

*hore-Done.

Zwiehander : svii-hahn-der

It´s not called Zwiehander, it´s Zweihander, as in german for "two-hander". I think this is what the programmers intended, because the unique Zweihander has a distinctive german-style name. So I pronounce it: tsvei-hahn-der.

Blah! I should have checked how to spell it.

But the "hander" part is German as well? I was aware that Zwei was two-, it would be really funny though if they had a sword that was like "dreihander" (sp) or something.

Wow. And here I was thinking that "Todesfaelle Flamme" (wow, I have no idea how to spell any of these things) was some French name. :lol:

in German, it's "Todesfälle Flamme" ä is written as 'ae' when you can't do special characters. 'Todesfälle' means 'deaths' or 'causes of death' - the sword is 'death flame' or possibly 'Flaming Death' or 'death by fire' or something to that effect

For some reason, I always thought Todesfaelle Flamme was sort of Celtic or something. Don't know why. Shows my general ignorance I guess.

As for pronunciations, most of mine are the same as you guys', but some of them confuse me. I don't see how you can pronounce Occy "Ah-see", for example. Oh well, guess it just depends on your frame of mind. The BotD as "Botted" really cracks me up, coming from a Battle.net background. :lol:
