Love them PJs
Argh. Not happy with this at all. Expect more changes than color later. XD Still not happy with it. Ah well. :(
In another fail notice – it occurs to me that the only Valkyrie Sister whose name I can pronounce is ‘Brynhildr’ on the account it’s the name you hear all the time.
Does anyone actually know how to pronounce Sváfa or Sigrdrífa? XD

Yay fanservice!
…names? Oh, uh… I have no idea. XD This is how I currently imagine they’re pronounced, though (probably entirely wrong):
- Brin-hild-er (already know that’s wrong)
- Sva-fa (…just like it’s spelled?)
- Sig-d… oh God my head exploded. :omg:
It is better then me, I can’t pronounce any of their names. :/
So I do not even try…ever…for fear of head trauma.
They really love their Lord Azrael don’t they? …Now that I think about it…how do you pronounce is name? I’ve been kinda pronouncing it like Isreal…except as AZ instead os IS.
That’s pretty much it. And if you’re really stuck – you can always go watch the Smurfs. Gargamel’s cat is also named Azrael. XD
I used to watch that show all the time. xD Still do, time-to-time. ^^
So did you name him after Gargamen’s cat? :)
No, just a happy coincidence. XD
Fanservice!! =D
As for the correct pronunciation………..
……
Uh, the names exist as the “real” Valkyries from Norse mythos, right? Have you checked on Wikipedia or other such informative sites? A lot of times they’ll give you the pronunciation…. Then there’s the good, old fashioned dictionary itself.
Yes. XD I’ve checked there. They just have the spellings. They’ve got a pronunciation chart somewhere for old Norse, but I fail at applying that to actual words. *_*;
Woo! Fanservice! xD
….Hrm, I have a slight idea on how to pronounce them, I think…
Sváfa…either like how it’s spelled, like “Sva-fa” (like the name Sven), or maybe “Swa-fa” because scandanavians pronounce the V’s like W’s, and the W’s like V’s.
(it’s really funny when my norwegian friend would say “Wideos” xD)
And as for Sigrdrífa…
I kinda thought “Sig-dri-fa”
maybe that’s too easy >__>
I’ll ask my friend next time 83
I can pronounce all the names, but that’s probably because I’m a mythology dork.
Sváfa– Zv-ah-fah (or some approximation thereof. It’s hard to phoneticize)
Sigrdrífa– Zig- drihf- fah
Not that I ever bother with the proper pronunciations.
Thanks girl!
Hurrah for fanservice! XD I have pronounced the Valkyries’ names the following ways:
- Brin-hil-der
- Sva-fa
-Si-gur-dri-fa
It may or may not be accurate, but take it for what it’s worth.
Oh. I thought the girl in the blue shirt on the last page was Driver XD.
Sváfa is pronounced swa-fa
Sigrdrífa is pronounced sid-dri-fa
just throwing that out there.
nice job liliy!
