MERGED: How do you say the site name? / What's with Eeee Ennn World?

[Kahuna Burger]

How do you say the site name?

It has come to my attention that some people say EN World like "N World" as opposed to "EE EN World". Now I'm curious about how wide spread this is.

EE-EN World, chiming in. Though, about 1/3 my gaming group pronounces is N World.

Funny thing, I didn't even know "Ennies" was pronounced like the letter "N".

Heh, I presumed it was since it drops the capitalization of the n.... The Living ENWorld game has the world name as "En World" so that I pronounced "N" as well, but the site itself is EE EN to me...

 

[el-remmen]

Neither is incorrect, but I say "N-world". Like I said in another thread, if the acronym is pronouncible, then pronounce it.

Doh! I forgot to make the votes public for future cleansing reference.

NWorld

Eric Noah's yada yada, etc.

Hence, it is EE EN.

Also, it would probably be written as 'En World' otherwise, not 'EN World'.

I didn't find out EN stood for Eric Noah until long after I had decided it was pronounced N-world.

It never crossed my mind that it could be called Eee En World.

Why does everything D&D related have to have controversial pronunciations? I'm just going to refer to everything as Dog.

I pronounce it DogWorld.

Those evil elves are called Dogs. Sorta similar to the name of the underwater demon guys which is also pronounced Dog.
