that's exactly it, matt!
It's peanut butter jelly time!

So I'm the only one who pronounces it GHAN?
oh, and part of the reason i say it queue-thbert is cos of how sheemie attempts to pronounce it. i figured that was sai king giving us a hint.
sorta like jk rowling finally had to explain how to pronounce hermione.

and how do you all pronouce deschain?
I say Dee Shane
EDIT: Sarajean, I'm pretty sure you're saying Cuthberts name correctly. I listened more intently to Frank Muller this morning and he does say Cue thbert, not keithbert as I first said.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

d'shane.
i leave the e out.
I pronounce Deschain the way it's spelled, DES-CHAIN.
same here but not the hard "chain" on the end.
I agree on Cuthbert--Frank Muller pronounces it pretty much as seen. With the e as in "cuestick"
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
I've always said Deschaine to rhyme with Dufresne. But I'm canadian.

You dare not."

I know I pronounce Cuthbert's name incorrectly. Even after listening through the first four books, I still think of it like I read way back when. Like it looks.
Old habits die hard.
Ditto that.
you're solid gold // i'll see you in hell
er....how do you pronounce Dufresne?Ditto that.

and I always said it Kuth-bert, with the first syllable like the word Cuff with a TH.

The horizon is right and motionless like the EKG of a dying woman.
No Matt... that would be, KHAAAAAAAAAN!! /Kirk
I'm pretty certain in WaG that King writes about Sheemie loving Cuthbert's name and (over) pronouncing it over and over, Kuh-youth-bert. Or close, I don't have WaG here.
I am in love with this thread but I will not talk about how I pronounce things...
Roland would have understood.
I wish you would.I am in love with this thread but I will not talk about how I pronounce things...
I am sure your way would be the sweetest.
Many and many would think of adopting it...

I always pronounce every remotely French-looking word as if it was French (Deschain, Depape, whatever)
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)

LOL trust me on this Letti, I have made fun and been made fun of some pretty wacky pronunciations.
Avatar for example. Someone whom I shall not name pronounces it Eh-Vate-Arrr. Hehehe and you can bet I have given that poor person no end of grief over it. So worry not you are in good company should you have a wacky and humourous pronunciation.

You haven't talked a Hungarian speaking English yet I guess.. so..
once when I was talking with Brice on the phone I told him 'avatar' (I don't remember why) and I had to explain it what I meant because he couldn't understand what I was saying.
Do you remember, Brice?
So.. no.. I am sure my pronunciation would rock your world, Baradin.
Roland would have understood.
Hahahahahahaha. Then I dare, nay DOUBLE Dare you to pronounce something for us : evil grin :

LOL oh yesss I bet you do!

Oh man, I've talked to Baradin on the phone and yeah, he does have quite that Canadian accent (think Strange Brew), but while I was laughing at him, he was laughing at my drawl...
It's peanut butter jelly time!
Roland would have understood.
Hahah I do NOT have an accent. YOU have the accent she-oy
