09-29-04, 01:04 PM Who did those and are they "official" or just some random fan's idea? I noticed for some they have multiples (like Cyre).

09-29-04, 02:37 PM Heh, well they are not official first of all, they are done by Spore (Goes by the name of megatron on these forums). They are just his idea of how certain names should be pronounced, but they are quite correct in my oppinion. Keith also gave some examples in the ask Keith Baker thread.

10-01-04, 09:49 PM Keith has a copy of my pronounciations, which are linked above, and when things aren't as busy he's going to try and tell me which are way off and which get his seal of approval.

But for now, most of us in #eberron agreed on those pronounciations.

10-02-04, 06:56 AM Lyrandar is spelt with an A not an E, so it sounds like lie-ran-dar. At least thats how I pronounce it. The list on Siberys.com is good, though there are a few I dont agree on (eg, I say Ker-bar-ra, not kwer-bar-ra).
And Hiryuu's are spot on ;)

Great job Megatron.

It's very difficult for non-native-english speakers to guess the right pronounciation of fantasy words (something you can't find in a dictionary, you know!) :)

(i'm lucky you can't hear how we pronounce Eberron..... :D )

Do you really pronounce these words this way?

These are two of the easiest words in the setting. The first is straightforward insofar as it has a known pronounciation in english. The second is nearly as easy in that it is just two words put together.

I'm sure I just fell for a joke... :confused:

I'm a sucker sometimes :rolleyes:
