Pronunciation Help

[TheGoofyGE3K]

So I've been stuck on this one since Distant Worlds, maybe someone can help. And maybe this could be where we all go for pronunciation help.

Verces. Is it like Ver-seis? (similar to 6v in Spanish) or ver-sigh? Ver-sighs? Versus? Ver-sees?

[Rysky the Dark Solarion]

I've been going with Ver-sees.

[The Sideromancer]

I default to Latin procunciation, so Ver-kays.

Me, too -- I used the ancient Greek Pleiades, Ulysses, Eratosthenes, etc. as my guide words.

..of course, "versus" makes sense, too, given the planet's defining day/night feature. :-)

(I mean, if Jason Buhlman named the Knights of Ozem because they're "awesome," then...)

[jocundthejolly]

Ver-sees, like vertices.

[Rub-Eta]

I just assumed that it was 'Ver-kes'.
Otherwise, it sounds like versus - "the tournament planet".

[Robert G. McCreary]

Rysky and jocundthejolly are correct: VER-seez.

[Metaphysician]

I've always prounounced it "Ver-cheese".
