      Ugly, it's pronounced Ugly. As in Temple Ugly.

      Grimoire is simply pronounced grime.

        Re: Grimoire

        fun fact: even SE doesn't know how to pronounce some things in FF.

        Someone asked how they pronounce Beadeux, Uggalepih, and so on awhile ago. Different people gave different results, there is no official answer because they never thought of it.

        I don't support the JP version uses katakana, does it? Still, that can only be so much of a guide.
        ------------------------------------------
        (for the reference, I pronounce it "UG-lay-pih". Maybe "UG~glay-pih". With an "Uh" sound, not "ah")

            Re: Grimoire

            Einherjar: Get Valkyrie Profile (the first one) and you'll know how to pronounce this. They actually get it right (I think; not an expert on Scandinavian languages myself). Say "(n)ine hair yar(d)" dropping the consonants in ()s and you'll be pretty close.

            Grimoire: "Grim War" would be pretty close, if you pronounced "war" to rhyme with "star".

            Did you know "grimoire", "grammar" and "glamour" all come from the same word? Oh, and Glamor Jupon and Gramary Cape, too. (Both of which would be great items for SCH, hint hint. Most Brigid armors aren't job-exclusive, so there's no reason for GJ to be. But maybe I'm just saying that because I already have one...)

              Re: Grimoire

              In the JP version it is written 「グリモア」, so said "Gri-moh-ah" basically.

              Since somebody asked.
              There will be cake.

                  Bah, why'd they replace it for NA? Do they think Americans are all bibliophobes? -- Pteryx

                    Wasn't there a Grimoire in Buffy the Vampire Slayer? There's your pronunciation lesson right there.

                      Well, some of us are bibliophiles, but I can see where they might get the opposite impression.

                        "Grimoire" sounds so much better than "Arts."
