How is "Tie-ranids" pronounced any differently from "Ty-ran-ids" (Ty-RANT sort of pronunciation?) since they are both the same to me, and I usually go with the later choice.
Sometimes when I hear people pronouce "Eldar" as "Eld-AR" instead of "L-DAR" it drives me up the wall - thankfully I only find that on YouTube.
Sanguinius... San-gwIn-I-us ("I"s have that hard "I" sound like "Icky"
Perturabo...SKIP (I can read it but it always comes out Per-tur-bo) that "a" is always silent when I speak it
Jaghati... jaag-aat-tie (H is silent, Jaag= J-AHHg, I give it a very masculine sound in Germanic - hence the long AHHH sounds, like "Ya" when spoken in German)
Tyranid...Ty-ran-id(s)
Schaeffer... shaf-fer
Ghazghkull... gaz-kool / gaz-kul
Astartes... a-stArt-ehs (Canadians, eh?)
C'tan.... SC-tan (SC = Silicone's hard "S" sound)
Abaddon... a-bad-on/a-ba-don interchangeably - try to stick to the first one though.
Guilliman... gill-y-min
Sam Hain... sam heen/hIIn (Like Charlie Sheen)
Khorne...Corn (on-the-cob:laugh
Slaanesh... slan-esh
Tzentch... Ze-n-ch
