Just listening to a few seconds of that brings back angry childhood memories. Not sure if it was to do with religious upbringing or the simple fact that the unit has always pissed me off and sounded like a twat.
No I'm never serious.

My answer:

Both wololoo and nyenyenyeh are there. If I wanted to imagine the first one I can hear it as such and if I want to imagine the second I'll hear the second. My guess is that it all comes down to how you hear the first part. Culture and the sounds your family make around you as well as the life experiences you've gone through and the way you learned speech all play a part in how you hear this. I personally hear it wololoo if I don't try too much, but maybe that's because my cousin used to imitate the priest's sound like that. I think it the voiceactor had to say one thing and not the other so in the end there has to be one answer and most likely it is wolooloo, but the way it is recorded in confuses you into thinking that "ne" and "ye" exist, perhaps when saying wo and then lo, the transition between these two sounds creates the perception that there's ne and ye? Maybe because wo is broad while lo is narrow? Perhaps the contrast between w and l is similar to the one between n and y?

I find this topic interesting! It made me think of something new!


Hey - yeah your explanation seems to be the most likely, as my siblings all hear it the same way. It is interesting though, that I have come across people (outside of family and friends) who seem to hear it in a similar manner. Were you the second that voted "other"?

It does seem kind of silly, but I agree it would be really interesting to get to the bottom of this.

To the poster who suggested a technical issue: I have heard this sound through a number of different computers over the years, all with different sound systems (both my own and those of others), so the issue may be psychological or neurological.

Thanks for the input so far everyone. If nothing else I hope this has brought back some (hopefully positive) memories.

You got the wrong game buddy. The Nyen nyen nen sound is the sound the priest from Empire Earth makes, not the priest from AoE.

Hi,

I have never played empire earth. Are you saying the sound in the posted video contains the sound from empire earth?

I am explaining that I hear this "wololo" as "nyenyenyeh" and I'm searching for an explanation as well as other people who hear it the same way.

Could you post a link to the empire earth sound? Maybe I will hear that one as "wololo", haha.

I'm trying pretty hard - I'm currently messing with the file in audacity too, just to see if I can find the wololo within...

Also - I seem to hear the rest of the priest sounds like everyone else does, and all the rest of the game sounds that have come up. (You know, 'cause aoe sounds tend to come up in conversation)
