PRONUNCIATION GUIDE In the V'ornn language, triple consonants have a distinct sound. With the exceptions noted below, the first two letters are always pronounced as a W, thus: Khagggun - Kow-gun Tuskugggun - Tus-kew-gun Mesagggun - Mes-ow-gun Rekkk - Rawk Wennn Stogggul - Woon Stow-gul Kinnnus - Kew-nus okummmon - ah-kow-mon okuuut - ah-kowt K'yonnno - Ka-yo-no salamuuun - sala-moown Olnnn - Owl-lin Sornnn - Sore-win Hadinnn - Had-ewn Bronnn Pallln - Brown Pawln Teyjattt - Tay-jawt seigggon - sew-gon skcettta - shew-tah Looorm - Loo-orm bannntor - bown-tor Kannna - Kaw-na Kefffir Gutttin - Kew-fear Gew-tin Ourrros - Ow-roos Jusssar - Jew-sar Julll - Jew-el Nefff - Newf Batoxxx - Bat-owx Boulllas - Bow-las (as in, to tie a bow) Hellespennn - Helle-spawn Argggedus - Ar-weeg-us When a Y directly precedes the triple consonant, it is pronounced EW, as in shrewd, thus: Rydddlin - Rewd-lin Rhynnnon - Rew-non Tynnn - Tewn but: K'yonnno - Ka-yow-no Because the following word is not of the V'ornn language, the triple consonant does not follow the above rules, thus: Centophennni - Chento-fenny Triple vowels are pronounced twice, creating another syllable, thus: Haaar-kyut - Ha-ar-key-ut leeesta - lay-aysta mumaaadis - mu-ma-ah-dis liiina - lee-eena N'Luuura - Nu-Loo-oora Normally, in V'ornn, the Y is pronounced EA, as in tear, thus: Gyrgon - Gear-gon Sa is pronounced SAY, thus: Sa Trryn - Say-Trean Kha is pronounced KO, while Ka is pronounced KA, thus: Khagggun - Kow-gun Kannna - Kaw-na Ch is always hard, thus: Morcha - More-ka Bach - Bahk Skc is always soft, thus: skcettta - shew-tah |
