Hi there.
Just a brief question regarding the pronunciation of the word for Saturday in The Elder Scrolls Games, Loredas.
Me and my friend had a minor disagreement (Yes, nerds
) over how you pronounce it.
He says 'Law- Dass'
I say 'Lorry-Dass'
Or perhaps it's 'Law red ass'
I was wondering if anyone here knew the correct way of saying it? Sorry for the random question.

I assumed from Moraonga(or whatever) the orc who wanted to be a knight in Oblivion.

Jäger. As in the whiskey. Which is yes, "yaygur". Jäger bombs are an alcoholic drink. And yummy. But I said Jagar bomb. :p I thought it was funny.

I've always said "Lor-a-dass" but I'm probably wrong.

I pronounce it "Loar-duhs". But that's me and my screwed up pronunciation.
I pronounce Jagar "Jag-ger".

I always saw "Loredas" and immediately identified
lore , but I much rather prefer the lor-ee-das version some of you have.

To me it's Law-red-us, and for Jagar is Jay-gar.

Fancypants with the IPA. I thought I was the only one who used that as a second language.
