"casted" is not a word...

you will cast raise; he is casting cure; she did cast stun;

we're not Shakespeare anymore.

Perhaps they're referring to fate assigning them a place in Hindu social hierarchy?

But really. Pretty much anything French or Japanese is going to get brutally mangled by the American crowd, either intentionally or otherwise.

Also:

"Kraken".

Let the argument commence.

I'm surprised no one added Ugly Grandpa Range but the Temple of Ugly Grandma was mentioned lol.

To add constructively though, a lot of the names always threw me off -- Mhaura, Qufim, Adoulin, etc. were already used examples -- but the most confusing things I've seen are two mobs that don't really get much attention in the game as it stands nowadays:

Gwynn Ap Nudd
Rw Nw Prt M Hrw

Thankfully, the Wiki provides cultural information as to give some context to these, and many other mobs and items, as far as real life lore and myths (I mean, is no one gonna talk about all the other influences that have impacted FF as a whole?) but I'd really love to see the uninitiated and uncultured (for lack of a better word) really try their hands at those mobs lol.

I don't see people saying that. If they did -- they will be hanged for it! >.>

The key here is to take a mouthful of peanutbutter and read every part as if it has an "a" after the first letter of each.

I'm really glad they brought back high level formers in the new Valgary zone accessible via Outer Rakazar.

Not really a mispronunciation, more like incorrect terminology, but anyone else get annoyed when someone comes on these forums and refers to "hate" as "threat"?

This isn't WoW....

Almost as annoying as when someone refers to "enmity" as "hate".

It's either one depending on the situation. "I have a lot of hate on this guy" "This gear gives me 10 enmity". It sounds weird saying "I have full enmity on this guy" or "your obviously terrible killer bow gives you no hate".

Ex-cabard vs. Zarcabard.

This one is the bane of my existence.

I have never heard of anyone playing an Ex-ylophone.
