What do you deliberately mispronounce? Every time I see N’Zoth, I literally say N-Zoth. For the longest time I used to call C’thun “Seethoon” so maybe I’ll eventually get N’zoth right :rofl:

“Valtrois” I trill the R. When Valtrois pronounces her own name, the R is silent, which irks me.

My friend and I back in BC got into an argument about how to say “Nagrand”

Was it nuh-grand? Was it nah-grand? Was it nay-grand? We googled it a few times and other people went crazy and said things like nuh-grund

My favorite was always NEEEEEEIGHGRAND

That’s not it lol

That item has a surprisingly complex naming process.

Basically, it means “Tangled Beard” in the Vrykul Language.

flækja is Icelandic for tangled.
skegg is Icelandic for beard.

I pronounce “Alliance” as “Losers” almost every time. Sometimes it’s on purpose, other time’s it’s just the truth.

Oh, hey I feel you buddy! Sometimes I pronounce the Horde as either genocidal maniacs who want to see the world burn or fearful cowards, depending on if we’re referring to lore or the actual players in Warmode!

I’ve the finest wires in the land.

Winds be out your back.

Ancestors wash over you.

Just about every NPC dialog has a mispronounced version in my idiot melon.

To be honest I say S-One-Seven. I thought that’s what it was for the longest time, until someone told me it was otherwise v.v
