How To Pronounce "Duck"
During the 2nd Chance Tournament, the casters called Duololoolockarad "Duck" because they couldn't pronounce his name. How do you think it should be pronounced now?

I say duol-krat in my head.

I'd say Ducky.

Anyway, nuancing isn't your forte, so I'll agree with you like I would with a 8 year old: violence is bad, don't do hard drugs and stay in school Benj98

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
I wouldn't pronounce stuff in my head either if my language was French. Waste of brain power.
Pay more attention to detail.

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
"duolckrad" doesn't represent any word and so you can really pronounce it however you want, although style guidelines do suggest that you pronounce it with a lowercase "d". I tend to use two pronunciations:
"duck" - here, the o, l, r, a, and d are silent.
DU - rhymes with "coup"
ol - like a big ol' pupper
krad - rhymes with bad
The real challenge will be for people to figure out how to pronounce Vinyanyérë.

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
You know you did a pretty good job of making up a new word when google only gives 5 hits for it, all of which are related to your forum accounts.

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
Pecelot's last "e" is wrong. It's pronounced more like an "ä" - or something in between those two.
Pay more attention to detail.
Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
„ä" is generally pronounced more like „e", right

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
I had to go look this up. I'm pretty sure the é should be pronounced as "ay" (rhymes with "ray"). The ë should be similar to "bed", though I often pronounce it somewhere between that and a schwa.

Re: How To Pronounce "Duck"
Is it a native word, then? Where does it derive from?
