How do you pronounce 'Ylesia'?

ArsenicMan · Nov 17, 2003

y -> e
le -> la
s -> shz
ia -> ia

Though in pronouncing it, I think it actually ends up as three syllables ("e LASH zia").

I pronounce it (ih)-LEE-sya, just barely saying the ih sound. I just can't explain that in light of the fact that I let the y be completely silent in yslamiri.

According to the EGtAS, ysalamiri is pronounced either:

"sohl-uh-meer-ee" or "ee-sohl-uh-meer-ee"

I pronounce it "Yell-see-ya"

I'm sure it's wrong, but I've never cared what the proper pronunciation for anything was in books

Okay, it's derived from the word the elysian.

The dictionary entry for it is here

There's a soundfile in the link with the proper pronounciation for elysia. Hope that helps.

I have the audio books of the Han Solo trilogy. They pronounce it "ee-LEE-zee-yuh".
