I see a lot of people say “Deaths fantom “ instead of Deaths fathom. Also, I think it’s weird that people say shayko instead of shako, even though that’s prob how it’s supposed to be pronounced

Haha I'm not sure why I say it that way. But thinking about it I actually pronounce it like shake-oh or shake-co

Shake-oh
Everything else is wrong.
I have spoken




I never know how to pronounce nihlathaks name, or even how to spell it.
Nihatalk? Nihlathak? Nihalthak?


Also I've heard some streamers pronouncing Gheed wrong.
Instead going similar to Greed, they went similar to Bread..... GHED or whatever

Want to know whats worse? I have a friend that refuses to call it a shako because thats "not the item name" and will only call it harlequin or harleys for short. Drives me nuts
