    Dreughside, Stormhaven. Go have a chat with Adiel Charnis about her husband.


    Another good reminder is that Peter Stormare voiced Lord Dregg in the newest TMNT cartoon. The thing that kind of looks like a dreugh if you squint enough. Dregg, dreugh. Same pronunciation.

    I believe it's supposed to be pronounced "dreg" but I prefer "drew" so that's how I say it.

    I say /dɹɛg/, as the NPCs say it, when I'm speaking quickly. When I'm feeling pretentious and have the time, I'd pronounce it /dɹœɣ/.

    Yes, it's "DREG", like egg. NPC's say so, Lead Writer says so, and Loremaster say so, so Dreg it is.

    Pronunciations are always subject to your locality, and very little to do with spelling.

    I guarantee that based on your physical location you have learned to pronounce at least one word "wrong" according to whomever came up with it. Pronunciations have a considerable amount to do with your surroundings and the dialects that you hear daily.

    Isn't it obviously "dreg" according to English language phonetics? You don't need an NPC to pronounce it.

    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 lich just like any ich-ending German word such as ich, mich, dich o.o



    btw: I think I say dreugh mor like draugr

    If you say it how it's spelled it's 'drew' but in game they don't pronounce it like that so I don't really know.
