In Response To: Re: So... how do you pronounce Durandal? (Vid Boi)

: The correct pronounciation, I suppose, would be the
: French-sounding...Duran-DAL, and the U would be pronounced as a Y.
: Although I myself pronounced it Du-RAN-dal, because a) it sounds cooler,
: and b) I named myself after an American game, not a French tale.

Interesting this thread came up so recently as I was just thinking about this today. While I was looking at the posts, I found myself looking for phonetic spellings as well as the accents.

ie:

DUR-en-dell (Not sure how I came up with this but this is how I said it in my head for some reason).
dyr-RAHN-dahl
dyr-RAHN-DAHL
dur-RHAN-DAHL

(Not sure if my phonetics are correct, but you get the idea).
