Pso'Xja = So-Ja

How IS this supposed to be pronounced?
I think this is simply just a case of SE throwing a keyboard at a wall. W/e sticks is what it is.

This is what I meant when it came to Zilart crap earlier. Esha'ntarl? Kam'lauant? The hell?


I mean, they got a common theme at least (apostrophes?) and it DOES seem pretty otherworldly, but still.

Why on earth would i want to do that lol... I don't like to even type to people in FFXI, talking to them would only make me dislike the game.

I reserve Vent for PvP activities only, that's why i only use it when I play WoW >.> Yea yea, its gay, blah blah... i only log in for the arena tournaments.

I think there was a mace-like weapon in FFXII called Bhuj as well.
As for pronunciation, I say "Booj"

FFXI is heavily dependent on two things only; Time and gil. To make gil you need time... so i guess you could argue it's only dependent on one thing if you so desired.

Communication should actually play only a slight role in the success of a group anyways.. the players should know how to do their jobs. Anything that needs to be known can easily be transmitted by a /l or /p macro.

Gil...

Is it gill like a fishy? Or some other stupid pronunciation... i do have a jp friend irl who says giroo when talking about ff13 lol... so if a jp says giroo then i'd wager its gill as in the fishies.

But i shouldn't make fun of her too much cuz i sometimes mispronounce it as "girl" with my f'ed up vietnamese accent.

Giru = Gil

"Ru" is generally used when "katakana-tizing" the L sound
This is just how it's translated.

You're putting too much thought into this xD
Gil has no meaning whatsoever, and yet the fanbase has been trying to find one since it's inception.
It's no different than any other fictitious currency
