D&D (2024) DMG Lore Glossary Preview

[Gorck]

I've never heard anyone pronounce it "fan-DAY-lin", though, have you?

EDIT: On topic of pronunciations, it seems they've changed their minds on Acererak. In Tomb of Annihilation, it's "ah-SAIR-ack" but in the Lore Glossary they've got it as "ah-SAIR-er-rack".

Also, "ah-LOOSE-tree-ell" just sounds silly to me. She'll always be "ah-LUSS-tree-ell". And her sister is "LAY-rull" not "LAIR-ull".

I don't like either option for Euryale either. A modern Greek speaker would pronounce it like "ehv-ree-AH-lee". I tend to go with "yur-EE-ah-lee" myself.

I prefer "HAY-dar" for Hadar myself.

I've also pronounced Kas as "KASS" not "KOSS".

I've also always pronounced Tharizdun as "THA-rizz-dun".

I would also be inclined to pronounce Yolande as "yo-LAND-uh".

Most of these a would pronounce the way you do.

As you mentioned to @Parmandur, I would say "FAN-duh-lin"

My instinct for Euryale would be "yur-ee-ALE"

I think for Kas, I would pronounce it "KAHSS", but that might just be my Boston Accent bleeding through (Car is pronounced "CAH"), despite there not being an "R" to drop. Likewise, I would say "yo-LAHN-duh"

Lastly, I've always liked to say "thar-izz-DOON". Emphasizing that last syllable lends it a darker, more sinister vibe. Sort of like Thulsa Doom from Conan the Barbarian.
