Soundbite of an Empire soldier saying 'Ulric' from Total Warhammer just after the video starts.

Ulcer is /ʌlsə/, Ulric is /ʊl.ɹɪk/.
That's the point. It's "put", but they've written it as "ulcer".

Pretty sure the Ul in Ulric is pronounced the same as the Ul in Ulcer.
I'm not entirely sure how Ulceris pronounced, but googling says it's ʌl, while I'm pretty sure Ulric is supposed to be pronounced like Germanic name Ulrich, which is ʊl.

I don't know how to read pronunciation guides.
The video I linked above is how I pronounce Ulric.
Edit: Ulfric from Skyrim without the F.

The correct pronunciation is ool*-rick.
*as in pool, but without the p at the start.

When people start questioning grammar, you know things are serious.
In that case, I think it's ulcer you're pronouncing wrong

Only if you shout it as a battlecry. Else it's far closer to pull IMO.

We're pretty sure. We know that Apparitions and Daemons are metaphysically distinct:
So it's not just a political reclassification for convenience's sake, there's a real important difference between them. Given that we have the full corpus of College writings on Apparitions (Extensive and Esoteric) I am pretty confident that we have strong reason to believe that all the things we-the-players think are Apparitions are in fact Apparitions and not Daemons, since there's a very easy way for the Colleges to check.
(Also, it wasn't 10,000 pages late. We learned about Apparition-binding on page 6116. That's only 7611 pages ago. Completely different

Huh, according to this, apparently "Shallya" is pronounced "shal-lee-ya" and not "shal-ya" like I was doing in my head the whole time.

I genuinely don't know what you're hearing, it sounded like the second one to me.

It was quick, but the second part of that name was pronounced "lia" rather than "ya".
I can kinda understand what they mean, it does seem like they are really enunciating that second "l" making it sounds like a 3 syllable word.

I just think there wasn't a gap between the Shall part and the Ya which made them mush together a bit.
It's not a purposeful difference in pronunciation, it's just what naturally happens when you say it quickly.
Probably fewer then one would expect, as people who care enough to fight for it would also care about the goddess disliking violence. But that won't stop everyone.
I meant the ulric one, Shallyans are probably chill enough not to get into brawls over name pronunciation. Though I bet imperials and bretonnians tend to pronounce it a bit differently lol.
