That is one of a few words that I hope to never recite to another person verbally, thus I do not need to know how to pronounce it correctly :lol:

IPA: [ˈyɡˌdrasilː]; the extra -l is a nominative case marker)

Lol and if you wanna know more here you go:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil

Just ask me next time ;) i already had fun teaching a few players over mic to pronounce Yggdrasil, Hoddmimir, Niflheim, Glidsheim, Hlidskjalf, Midgård, Valhalla <-- wonders how that could be hard of them all and Diar.

Lol the 3 first are alliance names a fourth will come, Hlidskjalf is the name of High Command, Midgård the name on our forum where people not in the empire can apply you know where the humans are, Valhalla is the place where our records of great deeds go and Last Diar is the name of the leaders of each alliance not in Hlidskjalf.

Kill's key says "coward".
Personally, I find it an amusing joke, given the fact that the correct answer to As's question is given not much later. :)

lol...

I generally only know of four alliances. DDE (not the smaller things that hand round it..), Omega, Warlords of Briton and The legion. Everything else is just some mess of 'them', 'those', that one and yes...

Its pretty easy to pronounce, but id never bother.

So, to the point....

*high fives Jack* :smt023
