So how do you pronounce it anyway?

[Quantum]

The "In Por" is easy. It's the Ylem I have a problem with.

Yuh-LEM?

EE-lem?

Lem?

Yelm?

YELL-em?
yell-EM?

How do you guys pronounce it?

[Diz]

In Por Lim.

PS - Phonetic of "IPY" - say it like "eye-pee-why" not "ippie" thats horrible. Straight knowledge yall

[Basia]

ya-lem.

but then, every town name is subjective as well. mih-nock, jeh-loam, new-jelm, etc.

[Quantum]

I pronounce it Bry-TANE. How about you?

[Basia]

I pronounce it Newbieville.

[Severus]

New-Jew-lem for me.

hahahaha i never even thought of pronouncing it "ippe." if i heard someone say that i'd probably be like "what kinda gay mmo is that?"

i've always said "in por yelm" but i've also always thought i was saying it incorrectly.

[Woodlife]

I pronounce it Bry-TANE. How about you?

LOL I pronounce it Brit'en

[Woodlife]

New-Jew-lem for me.

lol In that case it would be New-joo-lem

I say New-Jay-Lem

I think Basia pronounces it slightly different, but who knows who's right and wrong.
What I really want to know is how to say Ocollo? Oak-low?

[Basia]

lol In that case it would be New-joo-lem

I say New-Jay-Lem

I think Basia pronounces it slightly different, but who knows who's right and wrong.

Auk-low is how I say it.

[Severus]

I see where your head's at, unfortunately, that makes no sense. You need a break. Go upstairs, get a glass of milk, say hi to your mom for me.

[Thayn]

Ocollo: Oh-Col-Low
Trinsic: Trin-Sick
Britannia: Brit-Tane-Knee-Ya
Ylem - Yell'em

[Jack Straw]

In Por Ilm is what I always thought, but I always say In Por Yelm. In Por Ill-em crossed my mind, but I don't think so.

And I say Jell-um.

I really like this thread.


It is disconcerting that Az hasn't commented, he can't even pronounce his own shard.

Woah... I never knew magic arrow was so... deep.

But wait.. that doesn't make sense.. In Por Ylem.. In - make/create/cause Por - movement Ylem - matter

[Barbarossa]

I pronounce them correctly.

[Esau]

The way I say it, Ylem rhymes with phylum.

[Remixninja]

You guys have no idea how popular uo is. I went thru so many power words trying to pick a username on full tilt it was ridiculous.

[Woodlife]

It's Occlo! Not Ocollo.
:P

One of the many ways of saying it lol

[Woodlife]

Mine-uck

Yew! shake that soulja boy. Yew!

I lawled a few times on that one :D

[uniqueuser]

But wait.. that doesn't make sense.. In Por Ylem.. In - make/create/cause Por - movement Ylem - matterThe language is far too simplistic to take the word order or their definitions/classifications literally, if that's what you're getting at.

An Corp would be a pretty hilarious one when you come back from the dead with a nice river card.

[Zeh]

I was just reading a book yesterday (http://goo.gl/CAiUt) and I came across the term Ylem, the author noted that it's pronounced eye-lem... mind blown since I've always said it like: Yellm.

[kinglakkin]

I always called it YELLM but pronounce Eye Pee Why as Ippy

[Nocturne]

In Por Yelm. Just how it is. Correct or not...

In Por Yell-Em or what the frik ever is pretty retardo on sounding wise.

Needs to be 3 syllables.



Jell-um.
Ock-low.
Mine-ock.
Skar-ah-bray.

[Dustyn]

I say "Dlem" :X

[K Fed]

I pronounce it lem with a baaarely there e sound where the y is

[Genocide]

Its pronounced "Jen - O - Side"

[George Lucas]

Anybody pronounce it "An Corp" yet?
