How do you pronounce Golarion?

[Lorila Sorita]

Fairly straight forward question but I can't seem to actually find the answer any where! How do you pronounce Golarion?

[Rub-Eta]

Golarion
Golarian
Ghulaaréan
Rouge

[Endency]

Guh Lore E In

[RDM42]

Go. Larry. On.?

[Quentin Coldwater]

Go-LAIR-ee-on is how I do it.

[Lady Ladile]

Gul-air-ee-un for me!

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that there are in-game regional variations. Someone remind me again how to pronounce "tomato"? Or "garage"? or "schedule"?

For what it's worth, I pronounce it go 'LAR(rhymes with "star") ee Un. Four syllables, primary accent on the antepenultimate, secondary accent on the final.

I listen to a lot of podcast with the developers in them, and they usually pronounce it kind of like this:

Ga-lair-eon

[Atarlost]

It depends on where in Golarion you're from.

What, you think Ulfen and Chelliaxans don't have different accents? They're barely mutually intelligible. And sometimes not even that. About 1 in 50 Ulfen are based on the Swedish Chef from the Muppets.

I use the same stresses and vowel sounds as when I say "solarium. "

It's one of those Ghoti/Fish words, so, surprisingly, it is pronounced as ki-tle-rly-egh.

If you pronounce Golarion reaaaly slowly, it actually sounds like 'oranges'.

[Orfamay Quest]

What do you summon if you pronounce it backwards?

The archdevil Noiralog or the elder water elemental Noiralog or an anarchic housecat depending on your accent. Unless you say it really slowly in which case you get Segnaro, the obscure minor daemon of walking into cactii while drunk.
