How do you pronounce it?[edit]

Anyone remember how the skeleton pronounced it? (Did the Avatar?) As I recall, it was GRING-JOLAY, w/the J being the French J. The Ultra-Mind (talk) 03:01, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Sounds like Grin-jolay with a French J to me. --Terilem (talk) 09:02, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
Good find. It also corrects my memory of the skeleton talking like... Orville Redenbacher.
But it also sounds like the French I: GREEN-JOA-LAY. Funny, since the according to Wikipedia, the origin is likely Welsh. I'm tempted to just found out what the out-game pronunciation is and just go w/that, assuming that was the intended pronunciation and less than a great deal of attention was spent on that level of correctness.
Well, according to the transcript Orville's the only char to speak its name. It would be an improvement if we could just get other instances of him saying it, but I can't find them. The Ultra-Mind (talk) 04:42, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
