It's "Duh" the " R " is silent.

Don't ask me why, there is no rhyme or reason and it's 100% incorrect, but I've always said it like drow. I think I called it that joking one time and it just stuck.

Lmao. This thread is gold. I've been curious for quite some time how you go about saying this properly. This as well as lich. Is lich pronounced as though you're saying, "Lick."? Or as if you're saying the word, "Hitch." but with a "L".

I say drew but it's supposed to be dreg...you hear it said by an npc during a quest in stonefalls.

"Dr Dre says...., nothing you idiots, Dr Dre is dead!"

Dreg

@Vigarr So it would be said as, "Dreg wax." if spoken out?

I'm pretty sure it's lich like hitch, not lick, that would just be weird...

I suspect the correct pronunciation is /'drʊg/

(/ʊ/ is the vowel sound in book, cook, look, wolf, wood, etc)

It's like Hitch (lɪtʃ - tʃ sound is like china, catch)

And on topic, i say drew wrongly, hate the NPC:s that prove me wrong every time :P

BadLuckCharm

I say drew. They say dreg. So i say it's a typo, if it's supposed to be dreg.

In a somewhat related note, how do you pronounce rubedo? I say ru-bay-doh but I hear people say rube-eh-doh

I know it's dreg, but that's not how I pronounced it before the voice acting came along and clarified matters.

Dro, that's the way it's meant

Dark_Aether

I'm pretty sure it is like the french "eu" pronunciation, like in "bleu"; but drew is close enough.

NPC's call them "Drew."

dreg

If I hear someone say drew I literally mute them
