I have been having arguements with Bobert and Dark Vodo at school lately. They claim that Ziost is pronounced Zoist with the I and the O flipped and that Byss is pronounced Biss with a hard I. What is your take on the ordeal?

Zt-Ost is rather difficult to pronounce, no? O-)

Yes... but it's still there, forever immortalized in my post. :P

I think forums, IRC, MSN, ect ect, all need spellcheck. That would be so cool.

Wow, actually I thought it was Zeye - ohst

Uzbad

29-01-2005 19:16:08

A lot of things do have spellcheck...

or you could just learn to spell.

But that would take work!

I really dont care what anybody else says, I will always say Zy-Ost

Sunflash

Oh my! I still can't believe this post is still going. Who cares how you pronounce it, it is not like we actually hear each other say Ziost. :D

But Schisca's friends tease him... We must clarify this for his self-esteems sake. If we do not who knows what may happen to Schisca in RL?

Ziost is pronounced with a strong I = z-EYE-ost. The "ost" rhymes with "cost"

I'm under the impression it's a Hoth-like ice planet that was home to the Sith. This character has a history with it.


Byss rhymes with "Miss"
Byss is where these ugly creatures, who hung out thin the Mos Eisley Cantina, come from:

I'm right! just a different way of writeing it out.

Schisca
