Pronunciations?

[Dj_SkyEpic]

How about future spells?
Dammegid: Damn-Megid?
NosDiga: Nos-Diga? Nose-Diga? o.o o.o



Radiga: "RAH-deegah"
Gidiga: "JI-deegah" or "JEE-deegah"
Damdiga: "DAHM-deegah" (rather than "DAMN-deegah")
Nosdiga: "NOHS-deegah" ?

Any other interpretations?

Ra = RAh
Gi = Gee or Geuh
Nos = Noss
Dam = Dam

Thats how I pronounce and will pronounce these prefixes ;3

Actually, the "Gi" prefix has the same katakana as the "gi" in "megido," so it'd be, "Gih."

These are the correct pronounciations of the words, to answer OP's question. I used to have a book that clearly showed all the pronounciations for all of the spells in the PS canon, but sadly over the years, I have lost it.

and yes, the Gi- prefix would be prounced in the same way that you say "Get." So sound wise, it would be like Geh-barta, Geh-foie, etc.

These seems popular. It's what I've always used. Oh, wait, 'cept I say 'Meh-jid'.

[Sychosis]

I've always pronounced Gi as Guy.

Guy-zon-day

That would be what everyone's saying after they greet the Jarba for the first time.

Beaten to it...

As for me:

Foy
Zon-dee
Bar-tuh
Dee-guh
Grants
Meh-gid
Gee-(tech)
Damn-(tech)
Ray-(tech)
Nose-(tech)
Meh-gee-verse
Meh-gee-star
Ren-tis
Di-zass
Shif-tuh
Dee-band
Zoal-dee-aal
Reh-tee-rur
Gel-in
Zal-ur
Zoal-deal

I believe that covers everything...

[Neith]

I probably butcher the pronounciation.

Zon-day
Rah-zon-day
Gee-zon-day
Nos-zon-day
Zoh-dee-al

Foy? (lolz)
Rah-foy
Gee-foy
Dam-foy
Shif-tah
Jel (like Gel)-en

Bar-tah
Rah-bar-tah
Gee-bar-tah
Dam-bar-tah
Dee-band
Zal-yoore

Dee-gah
Rah-dee-gah
Gee-dee-gah
Nos-dee-gah
Ret-e-el

Ray-grants
Rest-ah
Rev-err-sah (partly due to my accent)
Gee-rest-ah

Meh-jid
Rah-meh-jid
Nos-meh-jid
Meh-jee-star
Meh-jee-verse

I know I missed a few, but heh.

I don't know how they should be pronounced, but I'll say them like that anyway. I have done (with the exception of the new techs) for years anyway.
