How to Pronounce Luir's

Started by Iiyola, December 01, 2011, 01:19:27 AM

I also pronounce it like "lures".

Stop saying it wrong.
Varak:You tell the mangy, pointy-eared gortok, in sirihish: "What, girl? You say the sorceror-king has fallen down the well?"
Ghardoan:A pitiful voice rises from the well below, "I've fallen and I can't get up..."

Am I really the only person that says it 'Leers?'


Lou-ears.

My Uncle Lou has large ears.

Lueis.

Silent 'r' I think. Or you can roll the 'r'.

Lu-eirrrrrrs.
Veni, vinci, voici.

I'm okay on my own.

If I were saying it wrong I wouldn't be correcting you. Ergo...
Varak:You tell the mangy, pointy-eared gortok, in sirihish: "What, girl? You say the sorceror-king has fallen down the well?"
Ghardoan:A pitiful voice rises from the well below, "I've fallen and I can't get up..."

All of you are wrong, unless you play it out in game:

Beady eyes squinting up, the weathered, grizzled old-timer asks you, in elsewhere-accented sirihish:
     "I ain't likin' th' way you say my hometown's name, boy-o. You sorta sound like you from hereabouts,
      but I ain't buyin' it. What say we take it outside an' I teach you how to REALLY say Luir's?"


In which case, please do!

I like how that guy said it as lurz. That's what I tried to state when I meant 'loo-irs with one syllable'.

MY POSITION IS UNASSAILABLE.

I've now change from Lures to Lurz because it's cooler.

Damn Americans are raping this beautiful word. I say it's Loo-eers. As if said in French.

I'm going to start calling it L'Outpost de Luir. Or maybe Chez Luir?  ;)
