It's not pronounced "Gal-ar-horn", it's a Scandinavian word and is pronounced "Yahl-lar-hawrn".
Gjallarhorn is Heimdall's Horn, used to warn the Gods of Ragnarok.
[b]Overall Edit[/b]: It's amazing all the hate this post got. Colourful crowd and language used, as well as people both thanking and hating me for making this a PSA. Keep it trending, the more people that know what it's properly called, the better. People sound really ignorant when they're mispronouncing it like they are.
Think of it this way, as pointed out by a poster... we don't say 'F-jords', I hear everyone say 'Yords' when it comes to an actual Fjord. Why in any case would people really think it's pronounced Gallarhorn...

[quote]Screw the people who say it doesn't matter or who cares. They're just uneducated pricks. I'm always happy when someone corrects my pronunciation so I don't make a fool of myself. You've been saying it wrong. Suck it up and correct yourself.[/quote]

Well considering this weapon isnt heimdallr's horn itself, what makes me have to pronounce it like it is the horn?

I'm probably one of the few individuals who knew about this for some time.

It is what it is man...to assume people know the proper pronunciation of a Scandinavian word is just dense. Be grateful for the ones who say it right and laugh off the rest.

*Calls people uneducated* . . . *Says a Scandinavian word is basic English*

I have always referred to it as "gorrillaporn".... So I guess I pronounced it wrong also

If you think this is bad... I've heard someone say Carota instead of Crota and at one point Patience & Time was Produce in Time.

In Spanish, two L's together make a "Y" sound as well. I'll fold this into your pronunciation and call it "yayarhorn". It's only fair to be all inclusive. We cannot leave anyone out.

Knife used to be pronounced, "kuh-nife," yes the k was pronounced. However, that became a mouthful to say and people stopped pronouncing the k and just pronouncing it as we pronounce it today, so... GALARHORN!!!!!!!!!
