Okay, I found a mistake.
Quote:
Olga Orly- "OL-yah OR-lee" (Or "OH-REALLY")

I know Super Judge Bro. said that it's pronounced like that, but Olya is a short version of Olga. Really, the Russian way to pronounce that is Olyga. [Same as written, but soften the L]


[EDIT] Also, the letter G doen't make an H sound, it's actually a firm "Geh" sound.

Just out of curiosity- Damon Gant's name...
Is it:

Gant, as in Gah-nt, or
Gant, as in, rhymes with "ant"?

Sorry, I don't know if that made any sense. I usually pronounce it the first way, but I've heard my friend pronounce it as it rhymes with ant. I'm not sure if either is correct. :yuusaku:

Interesting question. I think this could go both ways.

Personally, I say G-ANT, not G-AHNT. But I think it all depends on the person that says it.

His name is a play on the French word gant which is pronounced closer to the first way, but as has already been discussed, not all of the name pronunciations match the puns. Considering Gant is an English-speaking person with no known connections to France or the French, his name is probably pronounced how it would be in English, which would be the second option.

I used to think "Lana" was "lay-nuh", until a friend told me that I was wrong and that she actually knew someone named Lana, pronounced "lah-nuh". So I starrted to pronounce it like that afterwards. XD

How do you know? If Von Karma is pronounced "fonn kar-ma" Klavier would be pronounced "Kluh-feer"

Because I'm German. :) Klavier is a German word. German is a very complicated language - the letter V can be pronounced as an F or a W.
