Eberron pronunciation...

[Patryn of Elvenshae]

Seer or Sire is about all I can think of...unless you go with a hard C, of course.

I like the hard C, myself.

Mostly because of Monty Python ... Tim: "Caer Bannogh ..."

 

[der_kluge]

It's pronounced "throat warbler mangrove"

 

[fredramsey]

RIGHT! That's silly.

Now I'm warning this thread, right now, not to get silly!



(It's a dog's life on enworld.org)

That's it! Right, cue the next thread... Wait for it...

Khorvaire is a fairly big place. What with regional accents being affected by exposure to elven, dwarven, orcish and goblinoid it is going to depend on where you are from. This is one of the reasons that there isn't a pronounciation guide.

IIRC, my friend that works at WotC pronounces it Ee-bear-on and said that was the correct way to say it.

IIRC, my friend that works at WotC pronounces it Ee-bear-on and said that was the correct way to say it.

That's the pronunciation I've heard in the promo vids for the upcoming D&D video games.

I'm sure Keith could clear this right up for us, too.

 

[Lalato]

EH - buh -RON

At least that's how I say it.

[CronoDekar]

I've always said it like ken-ichi does. But yeah, like Stone Dog said Keith mentioned that Eberron is a big place with different dialects, so people there's not an "official" way of pronouncing anything (I go with "sire" for Cyre too).

 

[Aust Diamondew]

Never heard it pronounced E-Baron sounds like the name of a website or something. Only ever heard it the second way.

Hmm... Let me ask the Fairy King.

Oberon: "It's Ebberon"

Me: "thanks for clearing that up."

Take a bow Diaglo.
