SOW -- Why just like Cow of course.
Guk -- Rhymes with "luck"
Tizmak -- First syllable rhymes with Wiz, second like Mack.
Klok -- "Clock" of course.
Kaesora -- "Kay" + "sore" + "uh". Emphasis on second syllable
Damask -- Sort of like "The Mask"
Sebilis -- First Syllable rhymes with Deb, then "ill" + "iss" with the emphasis on the first syllable.
Innoruuk -- "In" + "or" + "ook" as in "look"
Teir'Dal -- "Tear" (as in crying) + "Doll"
Feerrott -- "Fear" + "Rot"
Kael Drakkal -- "Kale" + "drack" + "all"
Cabilis -- "Cab" + "eel" + "iss". emphasis on the second syllable.
Ry'Gorr -- "Rye" + "Gore"
Rathe -- like "wrath"
Ankhefenmut -- ank as in "hank" + "uh" + fen as in "pen" + Mutt as in a dog with the emphasis on the first and third syllable.
Luclin -- I used to pronounce this "Loose"lin, but was told by the folks at Sony that they pronounce it "Luck"lin. Amazing how they can mispronounce their own game isn't it?
Drakkel -- "drack" + "ill". Emphasis on the first syllable.
Ulthork -- Ull as in "pull" + thork as in "fork". Emphasis on the first syllable.
Rowyl -- Rhymes with "Howl"

Solusek -- Sol as in "Doll" plus "loose" plus sek as in "wreck". Emphasis on the second syllable.

Well I feel good now that I know i've been thinking those words in my head the right way, except feerrott, i always pronounced it like the animal. On topic, I had someone ask me for a brief lupine aura the other day, no way to debate that one.

Of course there is room for debate. First vowel can be long or short ('oo' or 'uh'), second vowel can be english/american or euro ('eye' or 'ee'), third vowel can be silent or voiced.

My biggest disappointment on joining this server was to find that Ghoti was unavailable as a name (pronounce it same as "fish": 'gh' as in laugh, 'o' as in women, 'ti' as in caution.)
