I hate it when I talk to my friends about elements and we end up not understanding each other due to different pronunciations...

Edit:Poll added

I did the poll.
Please do the poll by what you usually say. not what you know by checking google then doing the poll.

I have no idea really. i tend to read oty as Ow-tea-ugh, or the first thing you said. It looks very counter intuitive. I break my mind over the water thing, I think it should be Cry-saw-rah. Nice and lazy, swallow a few letters.

Physalia is obviously Fee-sah-lia to me. I guess you could read it as Fee say li ah? Horrible Englis spelling.

Aether is just aether. Come on. You have the word ''Ether'' right? Just like the Dutch word ''eter'' (Ay-ter) In other words it is pronounced with an ''e''. But with a real ''e''. Not what English people think is an ''e''. That is an ''I''
Shards aren't overpowered, as long as you have them yourself.

Discussing about pronounciating stuff with someone who's name contains 1337-speech is hilarious enough, but I just love the Otyugh variations :P

My pronunciations, correct me if there is a right way.


Otyugh: O-tee-uug     NOT    O-tee-YUg

Chrysaora: Cry-sa-o-ra

Physalia: Fi-sale-i-a

Aether: EEther usually, sometimes I go into an inbetween zone of AYther and EEther though. Definitely not EH-ther though.

IIRC,

Aether is pronounced AYther

and Æther is pronounced EEther, like Ether.

The International Phonetic Alphabet is the best way to desribe the pronunciation.
Do you have a source for this pronunciation ? Dictionary, internet, your own feeling for the english language as a native speaker ?

Physalia fī-ˈsā-lē-ə etc. The correct phonetics for all can be found with a little use of google-fu.
