onuasdad Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Basically just say how you pronounce the names of ruenscape cities and towns. To give you an overview of which ones would be nice to know how you pronounce, here is a list of most of them which I think some people would give some funny pronounciations to them ( NOTE: I do not know the correct spellings for all of the cities and towns of runescape- but hopefully you know which ones I'm referring to.) : Lumbridge: Varrock: Falador: Port Phasmatys: Ardounge: Tiranwnn: Lyetta: Picatoris Fishing colony: Trollheim: Burthrope: Canifis: Karamja: Now I'll give my pronounciations. Just to make it clear, separate each syllable with a - and for teh syllables in which you accent, put it in CAPITALS. LUHM-bridge Varr-OCK FA-la-dor Port Phas-MA-tys Ard-O-nge TIH-ra-win (exception- Tiranwnn is the correct spelling, but makes no sence in english. jsut show us how you pronounce it for these) Ly-ET-ta Pi-CA-stris Fishing colony TROHLl-heim BU-rth-rope Can-IF-is Kar-AHM-jah If you have any other names of cities/towns, post them! We want to know! update: the letter H should be very useful for giving your pronounciations; remember that you don't have to put in the exact spelling of the city when you're pronoucing it. Last added new cities/proofread on 9/1/08 Death should not be taken as 'the end,' but a very effective way to cut down taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinemas Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 In the quest Meeting History we were shown that the first people on runescape pronounce Ardougne as Ardoin, when your char asked where Ardougne is. For the rest, there have been plenty of these threads. The Ultimate Green Dragon GuideDon't hate me, just let me ride.Lord, just give me life.
