How to pronounce Chryse?

Hello fellow Basilers!

I found it to be difficult as I am someone from the Netherlands.
I said to myself: Ok enough, I'll just call is Crysis

What do you think?

you pronounce it like "krais" not in the english way, but read it in the dutch way xD
or
simply "cries" as in the word crying.[/quote]

Not in the English way, what...?
Krais IS pronounced 'cries' in English. o.o

@Serakh: Eh, I said Skype just because that's what I use, though other programs are probably used as well.

Yeah, Maple isn't really fast-paced, but my friends and I find grinding less boring when you're talking about stuff. Its a lot faster than having to stop and type too.

[quote=eziofire113]the song files extracted from the current korean version have the tracks listed as "Kreese Field" "Kreese Colliseum" ect. perhaps that is the correct pronunciation?[/quote]
By that evidence, I'd more readily assume KMS calls it "Greece" instead. Just sayin'.

[quote=Serakh]Yeah, who talks about MapleStory IRL anyway?

EDIT: Just checked Wikipedia. Apparently the proper pronunciation based on a Greek island sounds like cry-see.[/quote]
*face apple* A lot of guilds use Skype, y'know?

Hell all thar, fellow Dutchies !

I would pronounce just like Chrysler, without the ''ler'' like someone said before me. However it could indeed be Cry-see o_O.

@Ecku: you really think i couldnt relate a bunch of people in the nexon banner of people in togas to the fact that it was based on mythology rather than christianity. you sure about that bro?

@Ecku: i was making fun of how they named it. of course i know its based off of greek mythology. hence making you the fool.
