Zealot is not pronounced zee-lot. Zeal may be pronounced that way, but zealous is not. If you want confirmation, check out dictionary.com and use the pronunciation key. They list it as zelet, with the first "e" sound being the same "e" sound used in pet as opposed to bee.

Read zealot as you would zealous with a -t, not zeal with an -ot.

P.S. Zealous is not pronounced zee-lus by the way, it's like jealous with a z. Just fyi


I refuse to pronounce anything other than how it looks.

Zeel - lot!

I always say Chojja like "choy-ya"

And, it's definitely "zeh-let." If you say "zee-lot" you are just making yourself look like an illiterate. It is an actual word, you know. Like the dude said above, you look about as dumb as you would if you said "jee-los" for jealous.

How do you say "iloveoov" and "Doggi" (I say "doh-gi," don't ask me why)?
I have returned.

Jja sound in korean isn't a "J". It's like Tz, or Jz or something like that. It's a short sharp sound somewhere between tz/jz You really can't express it in english, which is why they write it as Jj

Z = Zed or Zee, it doesn't matter, its just the way its said in different areas, either way only the Australian way really matters as it always takes precedence over any other.

rekrul - rek rhal/rul
mensrea - mens rear
junwi - jun wee
maynard - may an/in/en/n ard
hovz - hov zed
nazgul - naz gal/gaal (if i say it fast else ghoul if its slow and, naz girl just not to his face though!)
zealot - zeal ot
chojja - cho jy/ cho jiii!
ggon - race chan ging ly ing fag got

I think I heard the OGN guys saying leem once.


(by the way, loosely related: I've seen people spell turret "turrent" way too many times. why??? why would someone think that??)
