Drukhari pronunciation

I've not been paying attention to the name changes for eldar but I keep looking at "Drukhari" and thinking "Drew Carey" ... That can't be right- (unless the new catch phrase is "price is wrong.")

How is Drukhari supposed to be pronounced?

It's a made up word, make up a pronunciation. I call them "Daiquiri".

I myself pronounce it as Dru-Car-E with the A in car being a bit long. I think it sounds good that way myself.

I pronounce it more like German. I'll try writing it down the way an English speaker would write it:
Drou (as in you)
Kar (as in scar)
Eee

I pronounce it "True Kin" or "Dark Eldar".

But if a GW legal team break into my home and hold a gun to my head, "Drou" as in "Dragon" and "You", "Car" as in "Car", and "Ee" as in "the letter E"

This ^^

I still thenk the U should have been an A
So I just pronounce it like
drak (track)
Ha (don't know how to say this one, a long aa like Bhaal)
ri (as in read)

DrouKarEee still sounds to much like drewcarey if you say it fist in my mind
I would then go for Druk (as in truck) and hari as I said above
But Drakhari just sounds better to me XD

It's Drew Curry. Really.

I say it drew-car-ee, but am not above a little light joshing with Drew Carey.

But to be fully honest, I'll probably continue to pronoune it Dark El-dar.

Drou
Khkh
Aaa (british A not american ae)
Ree

With the emphatis on Khkh.

@ squidmaster I think the way you continue to pronounce it is perfect.
Let's all practice it for a bit XD

Drug Harry?

Not bad that one, I bet one of the people who came up with the name thought something similar, the bastard for calling us Harry.
Or maybe make it more like Drug carry, cause you know we all carry drugs XD

This is what you do.
1.Listen to this song. ->New dark eldar theme song.
2.Swap the first "YA" in his name for "DRU"
3.Congratulations, your life is ruined.

All the little curs growing up in Corespur

He's got his worries too

And a dysjunction  too

Wtf??
Demons have invaded Commorragh after all...

But on topic, I'll go with CptMetal, but with the emphasis on the middle syllable, and as much guttural 'kkhh' and r-rolling as I can... drou-KAR-eee

I make the "h" the "ch" sound in "chutzpah", and I emphasize the "char" part in the middle that this creates.  Get into your best, "I-will-always-be-better-than-you"-arrogant, moustache-twirling, overly-theatrical villain voice and if you're like me you can really have fun with it.

Above all bring out your inner child.  Make up names like you're the best gorram namer of names in all of the multi-verse and be proud of your creations.  

When I am feeling extra-villainous I roll the "r".

Fwuhahahahah

Too good, too good by half!
