Ever since SoA released I've been trying to get my linkshell to say the name right, because it's a real thing. I had to convince half of them that it was even a real word in the first place, yet for some reason my practicing lawyer linkshell leader insists on saying it wrong all the time. I think she just does it to irritate me now. But really. Pretty much anything French or Japanese is going to get brutally mangled by the American crowd, either intentionally or otherwise.
Also: "Kraken". Let the argument commence. Offline

Let the argument commence. But hey, that's not a bad thing. At all ! You say that, but you haven't been listening to a bunch of Californians say things like "Seiryu's Coats (Kote)" for a decade.

Not really a mispronunciation, more like incorrect terminology, but anyone else get annoyed when someone comes on these forums and refers to "hate" as "threat"?
This isn't WoW.... Quetzalcoatl.Wakmidget said: » Ok, maybe this post is a little unnecessary. But the number of people that somehow are unable to read the word "FOMOR" is getting on my nerves.... yes, it is a made up word, but if you actually read the word, THERE IS NO "R" IN THE MIDDLE!! Please stop referring to them as "formors"... take a second to READ the name of the mob before you type it. It reminds me of a couple years back in one LS I was in referred to "ENMITY" as EH-NIM-ITEE... You can call me a grammar nazi, I don't care. But this is getting stupid. =/ You started your last sentence with a conjunction. Blasphemer! Edit - pah - LAY - din always irked me. Offline
