ZeshinX Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarack21 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I would *LOVE* a full, comprehensive pronunciation guide. We have SOME guidance, but not nearly enough and not in one place to easily reference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Himntor Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 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.

ManifestedISO Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 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. All Stop. On Screen.

Avantre Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 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 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
