Yes... well... I'll be 18 in just a few short days and to me it seems... well... too long. Like I'm trying to project an image, which, of course, I was.

If I've got my Quenya right, shouldn't it be neither? I pronounce it Fe-a, with the e in peg. You know, it's awfully difficult typing pronunciations...
*cough* Live inside my head and it's going to be pronounced Fay-a from now on.

More on topic, I agree about ohtatyaro. I did just spell that right, yes? I hope? I dont' see him/her often enough to nail the name, unlike Orominuialwen who I had to send PMs to in WW5 and then assign a role to in WW6.

Question
Quote:
Just about everyone calls me Fea, but half the time it's pronounced wrong. Perhaps we should start a "Fee or Fay-a? The Horrors of Pro-Nun-Sea-Ay-Shin". It's my own fault, of course, for not knowing how to do alt codes when I registered.
I always pronounce it Fay, like the ay in Day. Is that right?

I had a hard time spelling Encaitare in WW7, because I pronounce it way different then its spelled.

It is quite simple compared to most elvish names, really...but I suppose that's why I liked it. And I felt it didn't need an 'iel' or 'ien' or 'wen' ending or anything...
