I poked around the PoE wiki and came up blank looking for a pronunciation guide for some of the names in this game (it's entirely possible, perhaps likely, I just suck at looking for things).

 

Does one exist?     I'd just like to know if how I think something is pronounced....actually is pronounced that way (nothing specific at the moment I'd want to know, but I do know there are some that I will not be sure about).  Thanks in advance for any who can point me to one.

I would *LOVE* a full, comprehensive pronunciation guide. We have SOME guidance, but not nearly enough and not in one place to easily reference.

Dyrwood: deer-wood

 

Aedyr: A-deer

 

A lot have trouble pronouncing Aumaua: ah-mao-uh

Even knowing how to pronounce it, I think I'll still call them by "awoogah!" or something just as ridiculous.

This would be great

I just discovered I have been pronouncing tiefling wrong for years. Well that and  pretty much everything else ;-;

Teef-ling, right?

I would love a guide, too. The Guidebook Volume I is very helpful in this regard, so maybe that's the best place for now. I used to think I had a preternatural pronunciation sense for the written word, but Pillars of Eternity is a challenge. A good challenge.

Yeah I had been pronouncing it Tie - fling 

We need to get Josh to do a youtube video pronouncing a list of his weird names

My eyebrow raised a bit when I was reading the manual from steam and I saw that it was including pronunciation guides for words like Aptapo and  Enutanik but didn't for the vowel-splosion of Aumaua
