Ever see a word in GW that you dont know if youre pronouncing correctly?? Well post it here and we'll all share what we think. One that still puzzles me is Kryta.."cry tah" ? or "KREE Ta"? Mhmmm

Have fun

Well you could tell us and we can help you... otherwise this thread is pointless if noone is supposed to say what they can't pronounce...

I'm fine though, I don't recall anything awkward.

Rexion · Dec 20, 2007, 10:31 PM // 22:31

well they do say Kryta A LOT in the cutscenes... if you didn't skip scenes, you might not have caught therttherstoopEd.... very deadly disease it is

ensoriki · Dec 20, 2007, 10:38 PM // 22:38

The K and T are silent

it's
Ree-ah!

Yup thats what it is.

Arkantos · Dec 20, 2007, 11:18 PM // 23:18

So how do you pronounce it then? I've been saying "attics" or "att-acks" for the longest time.

And though it's not related to a place name, my guild leader used to say "bear-ege" instead of "barrage" for the LONGEST time. We finally found the nerve to correct him,

Onarik Amrak · Dec 21, 2007, 02:16 AM // 02:16

Bear-age? Like a Bear? LOL

I think Aatxe is like at-z. Something like that?

Mortal Amongst Mere Gods · Dec 21, 2007, 03:00 AM // 03:00

I pronoune Kryta as "Cry-tah", Aatxe as "Ahtz", and Barrage as "bur-rahj".

Ya.

WarKaster · Dec 21, 2007, 03:46 AM // 03:46

"Cry-Tah"

is it pronounced Rai U or Ri U??

fenix · Dec 21, 2007, 04:25 AM // 04:25

Yeah, I got no idea how to pronounce Aatxe, I usually say Aah-tax... Yeah, a tax on sighing, that's it.

RPGmaniac · Dec 21, 2007, 04:52 AM // 04:52

In all the cines, they call it Cry-ta, so that's what I call it.

Also, for like 2 years I thought it was Kilroy Stoneskin, not Kilroy Stonekin. My guild leader (the one who mispronounces barrage) brought it up and I looked it up so I could prove him wrong yet again. Turns out he was right, who knew?

Oh, and he also calls wiki "winki". No clue why... it's funny

mr_groovy · Dec 21, 2007, 09:13 AM // 09:13

Kry ta like spar ta.

Just call 'em cows, everyone knows what you mean by that.

In fact, here's a list of UW monsters' names:

Aatxe: Cow
Grasping Darkness: Squid
Smite Crawler: Cockroach
Obsidian Behemoth: *EDIT* Apparently the word for "male chicken" is not allowed here. Lame

( You can see that in two ways, guess which one I mean )
Banished Dream Rider: Horse
Terrorweb Dryder: Spider
Coldfire Night: Armadillo

Yeah...nice zoo right there

Mitchel · Dec 21, 2007, 01:59 PM // 13:59

Aatxe = atx?

Giga Strike · Dec 21, 2007, 02:48 PM // 14:48

i call them ataxe for simplicity. i know its wrong but its so much easier to say.
