Farore Pronunciation
Hello there! Since this wiki is kinda dumb when it comes to giving pronunciations, I'll tell you that, in Japanese, it's pronounced [fah-roh-roo]. None of the vowels are long, so by default, an English speaker would put the emphasis on the first syllable based on how it sounds to them when spoken by a Japanese person. However, that's not always the correct thing to do. Since the English spelling of "Faroru" is "Farore", It would either by pronounced [FAHR-ur] (sounding identical to "far" + "er"..."farrer", if that was a word), or [fuh-ROR] (with the O being a short O as taught in, I think, the UK. If you're American, it's gonna be like the O in "for", not like the O in "lot".). Schwarzorn (talk) 21:36, 24 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry to disappoint with another "kinda dumb" thing, but talk page discussions that don't relate to actual work on the wiki should also be carried to a forum. Also while not immediately pertinent to the case, that's certainly not how Furoru is pronounced in Japanese. If you're reading フ as "fah", I'd advise you to freshen up on Japanese phonology before you attempt to transcribe the phonetic pronunciation of any Japanese names on this Wiki.
