how do you pronounce 'Ivalice'?

[.:kerrod:.]

i've always said 'iv-al-iss', but i've heard 'iv-al-eye-ce' and 'eye-val-eye-ce'....just curious as to how you pronounce it? (sorry my 'sounding out' isn't very good )

EDIT: Dammit! i forgot i was in tactics advance this was supposed to go in 'Tactics'

EDIT 2: thanks for moving this

The correct pronounciation is "ē-vă-lēs."

It is said quite clearly numerous times in the voiced dialogue of Final Fantasy XII.

[Azalar]

I pronounce it Eye-va-lice

[Lawr]

I pronounced it Eye-va-lice, before I played FF12. My friend is worse though, he still pronounces it Ev-liss.

Can you write that out in simple characters? I'm interested.

Right now I say it...

Iv, as in the word give.
a, as in bra.
lice, as in fleece.

[Selena_Akariko]

I pronounce it 'ee-va-lis'

You got the 'a-lice', but the Iv is 'eev' like beef.

That's as simple as it gets, man!

Essentially the way you have been saying it is all correct except for the first syllable. The first I produces the same long e sound as the second i, thus:

Iv, as in the word believe.
a, as in bra.
lice, as in fleece.

I used to pronounce it 'Iv-ah-liss', before I had ever heard it spoken before.

[BG-57]

I've been pronouncing it correctly then. But it was by luck more than anything else.

Certainly better than the way I used to pronounce Mako.

[ReloadPsi]

I used to pronounce it 'Iv-ah-liss', before I had ever heard it spoken before.

And I prefer this pronunciation too. The "correct" one sounds so damn poncy.

[oddler]

I - Long i sound.
val - Short a sound.
is - Short i sound, hard s sound.

Accent on the 2nd syllable.

yeah, that's the first 'sounding out' i was trying to get across at the start^^^, that's how i've always said it
