Pronunciation

[AmonAmarth]

This is a really stupid question I know.
But.. What is the correct way to say Amon Amarth?
Is it 'AY-mon Amarth' Or 'AH-mon Amarth'?
Or something else.
I hope you understand what I mean.
Can anyone here tell me if this is the right way to say it or am I wrong?

Thanks in advance.

[OnceSealedInBlood]

Is Amarth pronounced as if it were Amerth?

No.

[ammonn amaarth]

 

[Blutaar]

[ammonn amaarth]

But not 'th', it's only a hard 't'

 

[MORGAVID]

its AH - mon ....listen to they way its said in "Metal wrath" and "Amon Amarth"

included bij the three Lord of the rings books is a another book, in which tolkien explains the pronunciation of the languages in middle earth. Maybe you can find it there..

 

[Celtik Militia]

watch the movie Lord of the Ring and in there they say a few times "Amon Sul" and i remember very well how they say "amon"..
its the "AH-mon" way.
the "a" sound is not that of the letter "A". its like the sound of the "a" in the word "pass" for example.

 

[Socom]

Tolkien explains pronounciations of terms and names mentioned in the book at the end of "Return Of The King".
Therefore, "english" way of saying AY-mon would be wrong and AH-mon would be closest to exact way of pronouncing.

 

[darcy]

i really don't get the "ay-mon" pronounciation, there's nothing there to give it a hard A sound.


while we're at it, people who spell it "bohemoth" piss me off to no end. poser weaklings!

 

[F_Slim]

Is this some kind of "Lord of the Nerd"-Convention ??

 

[darcy]

They're named after a mountain in LotR, it comes with the territory!

 

[Kalmarth]

Listen to Amon Amarth (the song... which is their best IMHO) from OSTGH and you'll know.

 

[AmonAmarth]

He says it on the DVD when they are about to play Amon Amarth the song.
