What is the proper pronunciation of the word, Aaqa? As in, the Wind Dukes of Aaqa...

Around Paizo, we pronounce it: "uh-CAW."


The pronunciation guide in Dragon #93 suggests A-ka (both As pronounced like the A in "far").


Strange word very close to latin: Aqua; more so for air creatures....

(Pathfinder Adventure Path Charter Subscriber)

I often pronounce it "A-aw-KAY," the first syllable being a long "A" sound.

I also catch myself pronuncing it "aw-KAY." That's how some of my players pronounce it.
