For many years I’ve been pronouncing Sigil as Sij-ill, like the word sigil. Recently I read something in a post from WotC saying that it is pronounced sig-ill (hard G). This just sounded weird to me, so I am continuing to say it with a J sound. You know, like in GIF 😏

Anyway, are there any other names of things in D&D that made you go “huh?” when you heard the official pronunciation?

    Ee-thur or eye-thur, depending on usage.

    “Either make up your mind or else” = ee-thur “I don’t care either way” = eye-thur

      Not functional usage, just region/preference.

      Or is this a reference to something?

      Am I wooshed?

          I didn’t think you were doing either, I thought maybe there was a meme pretending "either’ had strict rules or doesn’t have interchangeable pronunciations.

          Thanks
