Things like Pso'Xja are not English, idk why you keep bringing up English.

[Ryphen]

And you can tell the pronounciation of the rest if you check the Japanese version.
Errant houppelande is pronounced "oop-land" for example...

Errant houppelande is correctly pronounced as "ugly".

Shit, I can't even pronounce Paladin or melee right you'd have a field day with me.

Paladin and Melee are english.

Most of the words mentioned are translated into english from another language, and therefore they have a correct pronunciation in the english language.

We going to continue to go in circles or do you want to go back to the part where I said most people don't care how things in FFXI are pronounced, (including myself). In fact I think it's twice as annoying when someone corrects someone about a pronunciation of a word in a video game that the person pronouncing it wrong. Have fun feeling good about knowing how shit like ugglypie temple is pronounced, should include that on your resume.

"Most" people? I don't know, using this thread as a theory, most people who have commented seem to be in favor of correct pronunciation, and annoyed by the incorrect pronunciations.


And although there isn't a section on a resume for it, going into an interview and speaking with proper grammar and pronunciation puts you a mile ahead of anyone else who applies with the same background, yet speaks like they learned english from a caveman.

E Body?!?!

You do not understand how the minds of people like us operate.

Every time I hear Kallo say Oh-din, I want to punch babies.

O⋅din

I just went and asked the CEO of my company if I would get paid more if I could pronounce every word from Final Fantasy Eleven the MMORPG and he said yes, so I guess you guys were right.

Semi-Epic Lulz. Good work.

People with advanced pronunciation have a very particular set of skills; skills they have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make them a nightmare for people like you and I. If you pronounce their word correctly, that'll be the end of it. They will not look for you, they will not pursue you. But if you don't, they will look for you, they will find you, and they will troll your Ventrilo.

Paladin came from Latin via Italian, from palatinus. The earliest English usage was in the 16th century.

Melee came from Old French mesler via Latin, originally from the infinitive miscere, which means to mix, as in "one property of gases is they are miscible," or "yeah I'll mix it up."

Who gives a fuck about pronunciations as long as the intended meaning is understood by everyone involved? Really... I'm with Day.

I didn't say their origins were english, i said they were english, as in, words currently in the english language.

And in general, people who don't care about pronunciation, won't care about it at all. So it won't just be words from FFXI, it'll be everywhere. Go ask your CEO if he cares when people mispronounce "resume" and their own job role.

Anyways, i'm out. Good luck as your language skills deteriorate into something unrecognisable.

[Day]

Because pronunciations of ffxi terms has anything at all to do with real life, outside your house events. Decent straw man I guess.

[Shinryuu]

I don't care if people horribly mispronounce stuff, made-up items and mythology-derived items alike. Then again I hope they don't care that I think they're retarded.

[Titanss]

I just laugh when people on vent try to say the ridiculous shit on this game

[brisk]

The Japanese words are hiliarous. Biggest offender is on TS is Usukane. Its U-Su-Ka-Ne. Not U-Su-Ka-Knee

Ask your coworkers what they think about the asshole CEO who cares enough about how someone pronounces 'resume' to use it in the basis of their hiring criteria.

You guys obviously don't know how to properly pronounce "Odin", so I'll help you.
