Here's a list of words. I'm taking a survey (write me and I will summarize.) I would like to "hear" a pronunciation and a quick meaning for each of them. They are all proper nouns from my fantasy games etc. More on this subject to follow as well as a multiple choice questionaire for those with less time to devote.
