"AH-crow-nose"


Like "nose" like the body part? Where the "s" makes more of a "z" sound?

Or is it more like "noose" with a short o instead of long?

I always thought it was "ack-Row-nose" (with the s sound, not z as in nose the body part)

It probably is like how you pronounce it, I always just thought that Chrono, as in Chrono Trigger, was pronounced "crow-no" instead of "craw-no".

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

Are we seriously going to have a discussion on how to pronounce an employee's forum handle? I'm sure you were taught at one point or another how to 'sound-out' words. In the end; the way you originally said it was probably right.

By the way, it's pronounced Acornos.

Ok, so you tell me to sound it out, and then you say it isn't like how it is spelled?

It should be "ac-ROW-noes", how did you get "Ac-OR-nose"??

I added that little tid-bit after I posted it. 'Acornos' is an inside joke, I didn't think you'd take it seriously.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten
