Chaotic Sorcerer · 02-12-2004, 06:00 PM

Okay Just today a friend of mine and I were talking about web comics... suddenly i told him of how bm got (Killed?) by the Lich king, (I said Lich like Itch b**** witch ect ect) he than said that I pronounce Lich wrong he said that lich is pronounced like Lick.

Now the question really is which (hehe) pronuciation is correct?

He is wrong. It is pronounced Li-ch (l[i^]ch). According to dictionary.com in any case. They are typically correct.

Dictionary.com seems to say that "Lik" is the old Anglo Saxon way of pronouncing it.

For some reason I pronounce Lich "Linch". I'm pretty sure its wrong, but I'll continue calling him that.

I understand, if any of you play DnD in frogotten realms I pronounce Gensai as "Jinsay" but it's pronounced "Genisay", I think my way's better.

So I can't pass an opinion

I pronounce it, ch�c�b�, I think. Basically, you start off with choke, then follow it with a o sound, as in coco. Then finish it off with a bow (as in bow & arrow).

Choke-O-Bow
