Default How do you pronounce " Luclin "

Saw the thread about Luclin as next expansion, and that got to me pondering how in the hell do you pronounce the damn thing?

Is it pronounced " Loose - Lin " or " Luck - Lin "

Debate - "on"...[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I pronounce it like "Luck-Lin" but I feel like it's supposed to be pronounced "Luke-Lin"

Anything other than Luck-Lin and the tolerable Look-lin makes you an inbred mongoloid who should brush up on his English.

I pronounce it LOO - KLIN which is missing from your poll.

How do you pronounce Lucy?

L-U-C-Y = LOO - SEE.

Yes it's a soft C but these are proper names. Lucy, Luke, Luis etc. all use the LOO sound so it's only natural for me to pronounce Luclin with LOO.

You pronounce it as a soft C when followed by a vowel, Y dances on the blades edge, so your example is moot.

Out of the options he listed, I see no issue with yours =P you're still pronouncing the hard C like it's supposed to be.
