The Eternal Reading of Names Wrong

Forsaken Lover · 10-20-2009, 07:57 AM

So I'm sure a lot of people here have seen it called the Lifa Tree but it is the Iifa Tree. I had that one covered. Then i just realized a couple days ago I've been calling it Deilvert when it's Oeilvert. As much as I play this game I'm pretty embarrassed I just realized this.

You ever had any similar experiences with FFIX's cooky names?

I've heard people pronounce Zidane like Zi-dahn-eh, which sounds retarded to me.

After playing Dissidia I was saddened to learn that I have been pronouncing his name incorrectly... I always thought it was Zee - Dane when its actually Zi - Don

Course its no where near as bad as my butchering of Ultimecia's name...

Zi-dahn. Gar-net. Vee-vee. Am-uh-ruhnt. Eye-ko. Queen-uh. Sty-ner. Fray-uh. I pronounce Oeilvert in French, because it sounds better that way and looks as if it should be said that way anyway.

i always thought zidanes was just the same as the footballers?

Zi-dane is the only one I pronounced wrong, but, even after playing Dissidia, I still want to pronounce it that way (instead of Zi-dahn), because that's how it's spelled, dangit.

Used to call him Zid-zan.

I pronounce them Monkey butt, Big Head, Pinty hat, rusty, rat face, Quina, no pants, and crazy hair.
