It's like "drow," yes.
Almost everyone disagrees with you - including Gary Gygax, WotC, and etymologists.![]()
It's not that they disagree; it's more that he is objectively incorrect.![]()
It's OK! He can continue to tell his gaming group that. They won't discover the truth until they find Google! That'll never happen!![]()
No, it really isn't settled, since Google leads you to wikipedia which lists both pronunciations of "Drow" on that page.Chuckle all you like and be as petty as you wish- the issue is not settled and likely will not be for the foreseeable future. I don't care what your little pronunciation site says; I never saw it before your link and see no reason to accept it as authoritative now. But given that on Thursday night I had to go to an emergency room and spend two nights in a hospital, and have spent much of this week scrambling to set up follow-up doctor appointments among other things, I have better things to do than argue pronunciations on the Internet.
Thank you. Accepted.I'm really sorry I upset you. It was not my intention to make you angry, and that article was just supposed to be a useful and interesting resource. I was just having a little fun over what I felt was a trivial matter. Please accept my apologies.
