Help[Opinions] Re: How did you pronounce Hermione before Harry Potter (more)?
in reply to a message by Perrine
As I recall, it wasn't even mentioned in the books how to pronounce her name till the Goblet of Fire, when Hermione had to explain to one of the foreign visitors how to say it. For that matter, I don't know that it was entirely clear by the phonetics whether the mi was pronounced mee or my.
I know I pronounced it HER-mee-ohn.
I don't like the name at all, any pronunciation. Definitely not Her-mee-OH-nee, which sounds like some weird kind of pasta.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
