"Seed" or "See-D"?

[The Last Oath]

it is SeeD because SeeD 'grow' within the garden and a garden is usually where plants gorw so its probably SeeD, at least thats what i've always said.

[Future Esthar]

Yes! I was thinking about that scene the whole time while looking at this thread. That's why I think that SeeD is pronounced 'seed. It represents growth and what not. I still don't know why they decided to capalize the D, though. Maybe they just felt like it...

Obviously because Square wanna to hide the true story of FF8 behind the falsified one(as opposed to what people think).

[Iceglow]

SeeD pronounced seed as in plant seed this is all explained thoroughly in the game as the SeeDs are trained in the Gardens to defeat the sorceresses. SeeD and Garden isn't that enough of a give away?

[Future Esthar]

I was just explained the capitalization thing,not the pronunciation.
By the way,I will only believe that Hyne is pronounced Ine when Square confirm it was intended to be spelled this way.
Translations sometimes could be wrong.

[TheAbominatrix]

Well Square isnt likely to say anything about it, so there's no sense in arguing about the pronunciation, and no sense in asking us if you'll only believe Square, eh?

[Future Esthar]

Isn´t that site about the confirmation made by Square of some pronunciations?

[TheAbominatrix]

I'm sorry, which site about confirmation?

I'm pretty sure Square has never gone out of their way to clarify any pronunciations.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Japanese is a phonetic language, so there isn't too much room for ambiguity when it comes to pronounciations. Hyne is spelled ハイン, which is ha-i-n, pronouced "high-n."

[~SapphireStar~]

I just say 'seed' as in 'planting a seed in the garden.' There is no right or wrong way to say it. Its like the whole Tidus thread, say it the way you wish.

[Future Esthar]

I also think it´s Ha-i-n.
Thanks.
On the site we see that Odine is spelled Od-ai-ne.
Interesting.

[*~Angel Wing~*]

I thought it was See D to but i hat an argument with my brother he said it was seed and he convinced me.

Yeah, I've been convinced for a while, but my sister and I have always said "See" "D" but I do agree that it's really supposed to be pronounced "Seed", but we still say "See" "D".

Where can I find the pronunciation for "Hyne"?

Hyne only exists in your little theories. Pronounce it the way YOU want to pronounce it.

[TheSpoonyBard]

The Great Hyne is mentioned in the game. I pronounce it 'hi-nn', like 'vine' in the word 'grapevine'.

[Hambone]

when?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Rinoa is referred to as Hyne's descendant when she returns from the Ragnarok, and the Hyne is mentioned in the Information section of the Tutorial.

GREAT HYNE – Creator of mankind and believed to be the first Sorceress. Calling a sorceress the Great Hyne's descendent shows great respect.
