How Do You Pronounce Race/Location Names?

[:Zelda:Druggie:]

[*]Deku: Dee-koo (makes me SO mad when people say "deh-koo".
[/LIST]

THANK YOU I always pronounced it as Dee-Koo as well, the inspiration for this thread was actually when during Axle's Mailbag he kept going "deh-koo tree" and I thought what ?! So I wanted to see if others said that as well xD

Kokiri- I've heard both Coke-kear(k sound with ear) ee and Coker-e
Goron - Like moron
Zora - Zaur-uh
Shiekah - She-kuh
Gerudo - Grr-u-doe
Twili - Twee-lee
Nayru - Neigh-roo
Farore - Fuh-roar-ray
Navi - Nav (Like navigator) ee

Edit

Termina - Like in Spanish, tear-mean-ah
Deku - Deck-oo or day-koo, I do it both ways
Faron - Far-On

 

[Big Octo]

Gerudo- Jih-RU-do

Zora- ZOOR-ah

Goron- GOR-on

Deku- Deh-KU

Farore- Fare-ORE

Nayru- NEIGH-ru

Din- Din

(Hi people,I'm new)

Gerudo- Ger-roo-doh

Zora- Zoar-a

Goron- GOR-on

Deku- Deh-KU

Farore- Fa-roar

Nayru- Nigh-roo

Din- Din

[Newty]

Im pretty sure that you pronouce most of theses with the Japanese vowels... "A" is ah, "E" is ay, "I" is ee, "O" is oh, and "U" is oo. But i usually just stick with whatever i say first, not the correct way. XD

Deku- Deh-koo
Hylian - Hi-lay-en
Kaepora Gaebora - Kay-bora Gay-bora
Ocarina - Oh-ka-reen-a
Faron - Fair-on
Kokiri - Koh-kir-ee
Navi- nah-vee
Din- din
Nayru- Neigh-roo
Farore- Fah-roar-ay

Hylian=Hi-lee-n
kaepora Gaebora= kuh-bor-uh guh-bor-uh
Ocarina=oh-kuh-ree-nuh
Faron=fair-on

Kokiri=Kuh-kor-ee(when I firstplayed OoT, I couldn't read well, so I thought it said "Kokori", and it stuck with me)
Gerudo=guh-roo-dough
Twili=twy-ly

So, any questions? I mean, these are the way they're correctly pronounced.
Ive heard many people say them like this, and i've done my time for correction them on some things.
Please don't hate me, it's just hat you're doing it wrong. X3

~that's all~

 

[Big Octo]

To be honest, I'm not sure where people are getting that pronunciation of Farore. If someone can link me to an official reveal of her name pronunciation, then I'm sticking to Fair-oahr.
