Raka_Putra posted... Gar (as in garden)Yeah, this makes sense. I think it might be the case that native english speakers from the anglosphere countries are more used to seeing french phonemes get tossed around here and there so something like 'voir' is less likely to be tricky - we've seen and heard the term 'film noir' enough, for instance, to make that rhyming connection, or something like the french "voila!" ...

I got several FF names mispronounced as a kid. I thought Zidane was pronounced "zi-dain", Steiner was "Steen-ner", Freya was "Free-yah", Eiko was "Eek-co", constantly misread Amarant as Aramant ("Ah-rah-mant"), Seifer was "See-fur", Rinoa was "Rhye-no-ah", Yuffie was "yoff-ee", Aeris was "Air-rees", Shiva was "Shiver", Odin was "Ohh-dinn", and a bunch of others I'm sure I'm forgetting. I also made the Teedus mispronounciation (though I swear I heard Teedus when playing DISSIDIA ages ago). I also recall mispronouncing the word steak as "Steek" when first reading the word in a video game. The biggest "mispronounciation" of a word/name I ever made was when I was around 7 or 8 when I was playing some sort of (I think) early quiz computer game and the game showed the word "funky" on its own. I thought it read/was pronounced "Fucky", which when I said it at one point in school or somewhere else in public got me in trouble. --- PaulG235 | Finished in the Top 2 of GotD2010's Second Chance Bracket Sadly, there are no second chances in the Guru, azuarc doesn't need one. ...
