Being obviously based on AK-47 it, as many other titles in Destiny, has Russian word in its title.
Zhalo means "sting" in Russian and "zh" should be pronounced differently. For example, as you would say Jacques or Jean in French.
You can listen how it's pronounced on Google translate:

Who. Gives. A. Shit? All these posts make me wanna do is find you OPs on LFG, join your fireteam, and mispronounce EVERYTHING. "Hold on, guys. My Zaylow is out of bullets. I gotta reload my weapon thingy. Don't kill Ork without me. Shit, a witch is shooting me.. HELP!! Can I ride my speeder in here? Damnit! I forgot my RPG, all I have is my LMG, is that cool? Sorry, guys, gotta run. My mom just brought home pizz-zaah from Papa Jims."

Kinda makes you sound like terminator when saying it.
-
AHAHHAHAH WHO TAKES TIME TO LOOK UP A WORD TO BE ABLE TO PRONOUNCE IT THE RIGHT WAY THOUGH
-
No one pronounced Gjallerhorn right either. But who cares, the thing melted. R.I.P Gally 2014-2015
-
I actually got the zh part correct just saying it. I just put on o on the end.

Edited by twofoeone-__-: 10/30/2015 11:07:28 AMThis is Destiny not America, Russia, or whatever other damned country out there. In Destiny we call Gjallarhorn a Gallarhorn not a Yallerhorn. In Destiny we call Zhalo a Zalo not a Zhalah. To get that Zh sound you should try this. Say prestige now say it without the presti part. The "ge" is the sound of "zh". But this is [b]DESTINY[/b] so we shall call it Zalo. Edit: In Destiny we say Zalo or Zaylo as in Z-Halo without the "h" sound.

It's pronounced gallarhorn not yallarhorn. We don't care if it's pronounced correctly or not.
-
This will work about as well as trying to get people to pronounce gjallarhorn the correct (weird) way.

Hey! Hey! Guess what? [spoiler]NOBODY CARES![/spoiler]

Being English I just call it supercell. Everytime I say zhalo it reminds me of damn Beyonce
-
Yea, that sounds ridiculous. Zhalo sounds much better.
-
Yeah, it sound cooler the way we say it
-

-
Alert! Grammer whores
