Mardi Gras is commonly recognized/known in at least my part of the USA.

I think he's just using "gras" phonetically. But since in french most s at the end of words are silent, writing gras to phonetically mean "grass" confuzzled me when it makes sense to a native english speaker

Yeah I was using 'gras' phonetically, apologies for the confusion.

What about mekansm?
I think the voice actors (and a lot of people) pronounce it as mekanism, but I'll be damned if I see an 'i' in that word. I've always called it "meh-kansm".
I've recently started calling it meka but I feel like that's the lazy way out

I always thought it was pronounced mekanism because I never looked too carefully at the word and because I always just said "mek" when talking about it.

(And yes, it is a real word) How in the world would you mispronounce that? It sounds exactly how it is spelled.

Every time I hear it said like "Shu - kOO -chi", which is completely off. Every syllable should be "flat", with no real emphasis on any of the sounds...or at the very least with more emphasis on the "Shu".

I'm starting to really hate Huskar... We killed his teammates so many times, our LS got fed as hell and as a support I got one of my fastest mek ever and come mid game, we couldn't kill him! What the fudge?!

Urn counters his magic resistance because hp removal isn't reduced by magic resistance.
