Pronunciation
This is a common thread in the General forum, but I think there are a few names in FFTA that are a bit difficult to say.
Ivalice and Marche are 2 examples. I always pronounced them like:
"I"-vah-liss and Marsh
However I was on gametrailers.com and I saw they had a FFTA trailer with real people posing as Marche, Ritz and Mewt. The pronounced Ivalice and Marche like:
EE-vah-lees and Mar-shay
How have you pronounced these two? What other names have you had problems saying?

I used to say Marche like "marsh", and Ivalice so it rhymes with "eye chalice", but I gradually switched over to the commercial's "Marsh-ay" and "evil lease".
I pronounce Ivalice "eye valice" and sound out the "ch" in Mache so it it sounds like "March". Maybe I'll start saying "March-ay". That's the proper way to pronounce a 'e' when it's pronunsable.
i just say I-valice and marche its easy to say marche caus im dutch and i can get those type of words out of my mouth real easy so i just say it the way it is spelled in the game
Too big. <-- yeah i heard that one before
I have no standard pronunciation for Marche, and since I name my main character Skyblade, I don't really need one. Ivalice I have always pronounced to rhyme with chalice, as omnitarian said.
My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.
He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
