| Which pronunciation is correct according to blizzard, Dray-ni or Druh-nai.
I've read blizz quotes saying both were correct...

| Dray nigh
It's a long A sound and a long I sound.

Q u o t e: So it sounds like drain eye?
no.. the dray sort of stands out as it's own syllable. The n isn't used until you get to the last syllable. So would be more like dray neye if you wanted to go with the eye as your sound. :)
I hear the term used all the time and not just a couple times at Blizzcon. So I win the argument! Go me!

| I'm amending myself to Dran eye. ;) However, myself and many others say Dray nigh. We could be flogged for that most likely so I'm going to go with Dran eye. It could just be that way because it's easy to say it quickly and muddle it a bit.

| LOL.. no.. that would be soooo much worse. Hey! At least I can admit when I am a bit off and correct it!
