How do you pronounce "Asmodeus"

[Vegepygmy]

Ash-mo-day, going for the older root of the name. (Even in Latin the ultimate S is often left unpronounced.)

If that's true, I feel stupid. I took 4 years of Latin in high school, and I've never heard that.

Same as Klaus, above: az-moh-DAY-oos.

 

[The Grumpy Celt]

Inspired by a couple of other "How do you pronounce x" threads...

Drah-ow.

(Feeling grumpy in a silly way with less than no desire to be useful)

 

[Angel Tarragon]

There are 2 proper ways of pronouncing it, as shown in Dragon Compedium, Vol. I:

@z-mo-DAY-us
@z-MO-dee-us

I like to pronounce it the second way.

 

[Aris Dragonborn]

I chose 'other'.

oz-MOE-dee-us.

Though I think that 'oz-moe-DAY-us' sounds pretty cool too.

 

[Baron Opal]

azz-MO-Dee-us

Another for this one.

 

[glass]

azz-MO-Dee-us

What he said.


glass.

 

[Clavis]

I always said "Az-MOE-dee-us", at least whenever I sacrificed puppies to him.

 

[the Jester]

az-MOE-Dee-us

Pretty much option number two, above.

...though he's dead imc, and replaced by Lucifer.

 

[Man in the Funny Hat]

azz-mo-DAY-uss
or
azz-mo-DAY-oos
or
throat warbler mangrove

 

[Davelozzi]

azz-MO-Dee-us

That's essentially the same as #2.

Not really. Putting the 'D' in the different syllable totally changes the sound. I pronounce it hte same way as Atavar.
