Pronunciation of Xion...lol

[Superschlock]

I just wanna hear all 13 members names said so we know how to say them like (ones whos exact names werent in the game) Xigbar, Vexen, Lexaeus, Zexion, Demyx, Luxord, Marluxia and Larxene

 

[chris.]

You're talking about the pronunciation of Shion.
They wanted to know how to say Xion.

Umm... Yeah... And I gave the example of [ ze - ku - shi - on ], and [ shi - on], saying that they're the same, therefore Xion is pronounced [ zee - on ].

Is my case YET rested ??

:glare:

 

[Genocide]

Well, Japanese pronunciation isn't exactly the same as English; haven't you noticed that all throughout Re:COM, the other characters pronounce "Marluxia" as "Marooshia"?
So, it makes sense that the "X" in "Xion" would be pronounced "Sh", like in "Marooshia".

You think it'll be pronounced "Mar-luck-see-uh" That's how I say it.

It's pronounced Shion. That won't change.

It's Marluxia, Luxord, Zexion, Lexaeus, and Demyx I'm worrying about.

 

[E.J.]

Zy-on.

 

[Athaydea]

i thought it was pronounced .. (Zii-on) .. as in like the last city left in the Matrix trilogy??

 

[χΧχ]

Umm... Yeah... And I gave the example of [ ze - ku - shi - on ], and [ shi - on], saying that they're the same, therefore Xion is pronounced [ zee - on ].

:glare:

Don't make that face at me, it's not the same.
Don't you know how vowels work?

 

[Lefolane]

I pronounce Zi-ahn.(dunno if it's exact) Shi-On is Japanese sound. sa shi su se so. There's no 'Si' it's 'Shi'

 

[RuffPuff]

I always say it as Zee-on.. It just seems right.

 

[Superschlock]

yea, Zee-on sounds better

 

[chris.]

Don't make that face at me, it's not the same.

Yeah, I do, the point I'm making is that the Japanese pronunciation is different.
If Xion is pronounced as [ shee - on ], then that means that Zexion is pronounced [ zee - shee - on ], and I don't think that's right...
:mellow:

 

[Aqua13]

So I was just curious....how does everyone pronounce 'Xion'?
I always said it as "Zaye-on" but the new traier has Namine pronounce it as "Zee-on" (I'm pretty sure)
...
So does anyone say it one of those 2 ways? Or anything diffrent?

(Oh and...this is the right section...right??)

they always say it different, zexion=zekushion and xshion-xion

i always pronounced it zai-on

No, you're right, the Japanese pronunciation is Shion (Sheeohn), but I am pretty sure that whoever was asking was asking about the international pronunciation, Xion (Ziion, like Scion but with a Z).

It's just like how Sora's name in Japanese sounds like "Sorda".

Right right. They have their way of pronouncing things as we do. So if they say it one way in Japanese we (in the US) might say it a completly different way.

 

[Salty the Hero]

I pronounce it "shi-on" but it will probably be "Zy-on" or something else like that.

 

[Superschlock]

Shee-on just doesnt sound right to me

 

[blitz gene]

shi-on...i don't know actually???

 

[Superschlock]

Id be willing to bet money its Zee-On

 

[Ximon]

I just pronouce it as Zi-on.

 

[Apostle]

I pronounce it Zee-on
in the trailer I'm pretty sure it's pronounced She-on

 

[χΧχ]

Right right. They have their way of pronouncing things as we do. So if they say it one way in Japanese we (in the US) might say it a completly different way.

Exactly.
