[QUOTE="Shin Okada, post: 968561, member: 1956"] Dear EN world members. Japanese translation team for DnD3e need your help. Now we are translating MM. As we are not using western alphabets, we must transliterate any proper nouns in DnD. Some of them can be found in WotC or TSR's pronunciation guide. And some of them are answered by WotC design team. Still, we haven't received some answer from them (it seems that they are too busy for making 3.5e) and, provably, we have not enough time to wait for their answer. So I want to consult you hard-core DnD players. How can I pronounce those words? Word: Description Blibdoolpoolp: Kuo-toas' deity Deep Sashelas: deity of Aquatic Elf Diirinka: deity of Derro Eadro: deity of Locathah and Merfolk grugach: Wild Elf Hruggek: deity of Bugbear illithid: Mind Flayer Kapoacinth: A marine variety of gargoyle Laduguer: deity of Duergar Laogzed: Troglodytes' deity Lolth: deity of Drow malenti: a kind of Sahuagin Mutant (If it is a plural form, please tell us its singular form. Maybe, "malent"?) Mershaulk: Yuan-tis' deity Maglubiyet: deity of Goblin Scrag: Sea Troll Sekolah: deity of Sahuagin Semuanya: Lizardfolk's deity Skerrit: deity of Centaur Yeenoghu: deity of Gnoll Thanks a lot in advance [/QUOTE]
