TP Pronounciation

TP is still a new game and there are words/names in it that can have different pronounciations. Here's how I say certain words/names in TP.

Malo - May-loh
Talo - Tay-loh
Renado - Re-nah-doh (Re as in debt)
Lanayru - Lanay-roo (Lan as in land) or Lah-nay-roo (I alternate between both)
Yeta - Ye-tah (Ye as in debt)
Yeto - Ye-toh (Ye as in debt again)
Ordona - Or-doh-nah
Ashei - A-shy (A as in mate)
Faron - Fair-in
Ralis - Ral-is (Ral as in Albert and is as in kiss)
Ooccoo - Ooh-cooh

That's all I can think of for now, but I'll add to this list as I keep playing the game (I haven't finished TP yet). How do you say these words/names?

What about Ooccoo? That name really annoys me b/c I dunno how to say it. ><"

Oh. I say Ooccoo just like it sounds: Ooh-cooh.

I'll put Ooccoo on my list.

Okay, thanks! ^^

Malo - Mah-Loh
Talo - Tah-Loh
Renado - Ren-ah-do
Lanayru - Lah-Na-Y(i)roo
Yeta - Yeh-tah
Yeto - Yeh-toh
Ordona - Or-doh-nah
Ashei - Ah-shy
Faron - Fah-Ronn
Ralis - Ra-Liss

That's how I'd say them.

I always thought it was Maw-loh and Taw-loh. But maybe I'm wrong-oh.

For moi, it is (caps for emphasised syllable):

Malo - MAL-oh
Talo - TAL-oh
Renado - Re-NAH-doh
Lanayru - Lah-NAY-roo
Yeta - YEH-tuh
Yeto - YEH-toh
Ordona - Or-DOH-nah
Ashei - a-SHAY
Faron - FAH-run
Ralis - RAL-iss
Ooccoo - OCK-oo (Sun's pronouciation seems far wiser here, but that's just the way it translated in my mind)
Ilia - ih-LEE-a
Twili - twy-LYE (I naturally read it so that it rhymes with "willy", but that sounds stupid, so I conditioned myself so it's just "Twilight" with the "ght" bit gone)

I always said "Far-on* Don't blame me! Its how I say it!

i'm not sure and it was driving me crazy, but i think ooccoo is oo-k-oo lanayru is la-nar-yu.

Malo - Mah-loh (like marshmallow)
Talo - Tah-loh (same but with a T)
Renado - Re-nah-doh (Re as in debt)
Lanayru - la-nigh-rue (nigh as in night)
Yeta - Ye-ta (ta like tamato)
Yeto - Ye-toe
Ordona - Or-da-nah
Ashei - A-shay (A as in law)
Faron - Fa-rown (as in own. Reason for this is because the Hyian text spells it 'Farone')
Ralis - Rawl-iss (Rawl as in raw)
Ooccoo - Ooh-cooh

Just edited the first post to fit my pronunciations.

I agree with all above except:

Faron (FAIR-on)
Odona (OR-don-a) don as in "don't" w/o the t sound
Ashei (AH-she)
Lanayru (Lan-AH-rue)

Malo and Talo are pretty obviously take-offs on Malon/Talon and Marin/Tarin, and so should be pronounced MAH-LOW and TAL-OH

I pronouce Epona

Epooona - po and in poop. Thats how I say it,OK?

Ok, here we go.

Malo - Mah-lo
Talo - Tah-lo
Renado - Reh-nah-doh
Lanayru - La-nay-roo (La as in Laugh, nay as in the horse noise)
Yeta - Ye-ta (Ye sounding like meh, ta as in taffy)
Yeto - Ye-toe (Ye sounding like meh)
Ordona - Or-don-ah
Ashei - Ah-she
Faron - Fair-on
Ralis - Ral-is (Ral as in pal, is as in hiss)
Ooccoo - Oo-coo
Epona- E-poe-na (E as in effort, na sounding like pu in puppy)

There ya go, some/most are probably the same for many other people, but might as well post em all.

Malo - MAY-low

Talo - TAY-low

Renado - REH-nah-doh

Lanayru - la-NAH-rue
(Odd I know, especially considering I knew it was referencing Nayru)


Yeta - YAY-tah

Yeto - YEH-toh

Ordona - Or-DAH-nah

Ashei - A-shay (A as in atributes)

Faron - FAIR-on

Ralis - RAH-lis

Ooccoo - Ooh-cooh

Midna - MID-Nuh

Ilia - LEE-uh

Eldin- el-DIN

Renaldo- ren-ALL-doh




I have not played through the game a second time yet, so many names are not singed in my brain as of now. However if more are posted here as being confusing I'll add them in my post. I always find it interesting how peoples brains intereperet these names (Has much to do with the region you were raised in as well as a cajillion other factors)

Wow, you guys sure pronounce things differently.

Ordona- Or-DAH-nah
Faron- Fair-un
Midna- MID-nah
Ilia- ILL-lee-ah
Eldin- EL-din
Renaldo- re-NALL-doh
Ooccoo- Oh-Coh-Coh

Just for the record: Ocarina- Oh-ka-REE-na

Malo - May-loh
Renado - Reh-nah-doh
Talo - Tay-loh
Lanayru - Lanay-roo
Yeto - Ye-toh
Yeta - Ye-tah
Ordona - Or-donar
Ashei - A-shey
Faron - Fa-ron
Ralis - Ra-lis
Ooccoo - Ooh-cooh

This is how I pronounced those: (and this may look like a list of the already stated)

Malo: mah-low
Talo: tah-low
Renado: Ree-nah-doe
Lanayru: lah-nay-roo
Yeta: yet-ah
Yeto: yet-oh
Ordona: ore-dah-nah
Ashei: ah-shay
Faron: fahr-ohn
Ralis: rahl-iss
Ooccoo: ook-oo

Malo-Mah Low
Talo-Tah Low
Renado-Re (as in Ren) Na (as in "Na na na na na") Doh
Lanayru- La Naru (Y is silent, U as in monkey sounds.)
