How to pronounce Keidran

#1 Post by TheOne »

Keidran - how is that supposed to be pronounced? Is it Key-dran, like a key to unlock a door, followed by dran, with the "a" sounding like "brand"? Or is it Kay-dran, like "okay"? (I keep wanting to put an extra "i" in dran, making it sound like Key-dree-an, but I know there's no extra "i.")

I've moved this post to its own topic because it was bumping a thread that was over a year old, and wasn't related to the topic. Please be considerate in the future and avoid bumping old threads.

Also, "keidran" is pronounced like "KY-dran", with emphasis on the "KY". "KY" sounds like the beginning of "kite" and "dran" like the ending of "children".

I thought that the a in the second syllable was closer to /a/ than /æ/.
Image Haha, he's so tiny! Where is he going?

Surprise! I found out myself during a stream a few years ago. You can pronounce it either way of course, but this is how Tom says it.
