Pronunciation

For all of its strangely english language, Destiny is full of mispronounced words. First of all, Xûr is pronounced Zur, not Ex-ur. Secondly, Ir Yût is prnounced Ir Yuht, not Ir Yoot. Also, Gjallarhorn is pronounced gYaulerhorn, with a very short g syllable followed by The Yallerhorn. It's not Ga-Jallarhorn, not Gallarhorn, not Jellohorn. Damnit. [i]Alright Stephen Hawkmoon, I'll give you one last chance. Say it. YALLERHORN.[/i] Most people mispronounce the name of the wizard Xyor. And I'm probably one of those people. Most people pronounce it Zy-or, which is probably correct. But ex-yor is not correct. Seriously that sounds like what Siri says when you type in Djhsvsjshsbv and say SPEAK. But how I pronounce it is with one syllable. Zhyor. Which sounds the most like a wizard name. And lastly, everybody I have ever met has mispronounced Valus Ta'aurc. People pronounce it Va-lus Tuh- Arick, when commander Zavala clearly pronounces it Vah-los Tuh-Arck. And before any of you say I'm stupid, I'll have you know I have 30 hours training in English K. Not English K- level, English Kindergarten. So get REKT. Edit: Obama is pronounced O-buh-may, bloody yanks.
