How Would You Pronounce This?
Great video guys, i really enjoyed it.
I love these collab videos, show's the positive community really well @Aeonova i approve the bounce The right pronunciation for Selbina is SEH-RUH-BEE-NA
(lol) Interestingly enough, the "right" name for Mhaura was actually meant to be Mhaula. It got errouneosly transliterated to english from japanese as "Mhaura" and it stayed like that. In japanese they have a single phonem for both the sounds of "r" and "l" (well it's a bit more complicated but I'm simplifying things), which means that it can be sometimes difficult or ambiguous to know which letter to pick when transliterating to a western language. The JP team already did that with "Mhaula" with an l, but the team of translators appearently didn't get told that and so we now have the official transliteration of "Mhaura" :-D Also the majority of elvaan related words, while tipically completely made up, are a reference to french.

Just no on all your pronunciations xD (you nailed Gungnir though) We all failed. I would have to say Logical's Selbina with a ~ on the N made Peach and I laugh pretty hysterically. Haha yea... my wife says I like to add sounds onto the end of words that aren't there when it's a word I'm not certain of. Even she found the vid pretty funny. :) Im just messing with him. I rage a little every time I watch his NIN videos and he says certain ninjutsu spells. In a lighthearted way.
I was curious early this morning and watched the video with captions on. I didn't write captions but YouTube did its thing and it's even funnier. Try it out yourself lol! Here's an example

Yallerhorn. ![]() We were right because YouTube said! hahaha i just found funny how most of them said "Shantoro" or "Sarurabarura" as most of my game mates do, anyways its a great video and agree mostly with Ruaumoko
My brain just broke. I've been pronouncing Aegis the way Joco did, but I've been wrong for years, decades even. My first RMEA and I didn't even know how to say it correctly. /shame

It wasn't until I heard someone pronounce the pokemon "Aegislash" and I thought "wtf?..." and actually looked it up. The way Rua said Denouements in his monk video made me want to cry so thank you for this

Lol lol |
