| Granted that is fairly easy to do with WoT. I read Egwene as "Egg Win" for a long time until my friend corrected me: Me: "What is up with that Egg Win character?" Friend: "Wha? Who?" Me: "You know Egg Win" Friend: "I think you mean e-GWAIN" Me: "Oh" Pretty thrilling dialogue.  |

| I've listened to all of the audiobooks so that's how I've always read the names if I read one of the books. | ||

| yeah. Personally I used to read it egg-WAIN. Though that's probably also because i'm french x) The thing I've had many pronunciations for stays Aes Sedai though ^^ |

I always thought Gawyn was gah-WIN, not GAH-win. Emphasis is weird in WoT  |

| IS it GAH-win? I thought it was gahWAIN, like the character in Arthurian legend he was derived from. WoT pronunciations are strange! | ||

| My big failure though was calling Nynaeve "Nin-ay-ev" for several books until I read the glossary bit about pronunciation. It was surprisingly easy to correct myself though. Just a little mental note every time I saw the name in the book, and BAM, it's fixed. | ||

| ooh, btw, haven't been on a lot recently because I was busy finishing my first draft of my bio coursework. It's an issue report called "How can metal ionophores be used to treat Alzheimer's Disease" and it's based off of the journal: clickable text Also, I was in ThiMUN... it was pretty tiring. clickable text |

| Just from the abstract, that looks like an interesting paper. Reminds me of a talk I went to once about the role of oxidative damage of lipids in Alzheimer's. | ||

| Oxidative damage of lipids in Alzheimer's? I don't remember reading anything about that.... (looks up) Thanks, it's pretty interesting. I don't see how I can use it in my report though. |
