I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone. I choose a mortal life... I choose Oregano. (lemmy.world)

You are missing some:

[–] Squorlple@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

This chart makes things much clearer. Arigato

[–] Thavron@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yes but do you pronounce it oregano or oregano.

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Unpopular opinion but both are wrong. It's oregano

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Pronounce the "g" like in "gif"

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

And the "o" as in "people"

[–] Threeme2189@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Orejano? Is that in Spanish or something?

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Oh-REG-a-no

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

”Ore-GAH-no. What the hell?” - M. Simpson

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

This is the correct answer.

[–] boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

The mods dont want us to know it!

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh, is it gone now? Looks like OP deleted it for some reason, not the mods. If you're curious, they said "Oh-REG-a-no".

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

No idea how it got deleted. Sync let me restore it. Odd.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

depends your native language and regional accent

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Technically the dragon from Eragon was named Saphira but I shall let it slide this time

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

Unfortunately we don't know what Eragon himself looks like because no movie was ever made. Worst bit is that they even had some pretty great actors in the movie that was never made.

[–] Todd_cross@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago

Shoulda replaced it with Aragon in Spain

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Where's my second name on that list?

[–] RevolverSly@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What about northeastern Spain autonomous community?

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 4 points 2 months ago

You're foolin' yourself, we're living in a Potatoship

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hmm, I thought top left was Orgasmo, top middle was Ermagherd, and bottom left was Gas Station Shelob

[–] boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 months ago

Top middle is Saphira afaik, the dragon from the dude called Eragon

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The ending to Eragon was more disappointing than the movie.

[–] lady_maria@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I remember really enjoying the first two Eragon books as a kid, though I barely remember any characters, or anything that happened, really. I do remember being very disappointed in the movie though.

But it sounds like the books wouldn't be worth revisiting? 😕

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

First two books are great. I don’t think it’s worth revisiting the ending for the last book was lame.

::: massive spoilers

Tap for spoilerEragon defeats the main evil wizard guy and now has some dragon eggs. He tells Arya the elvish princess that’s been saving his ass for the last 3 books that he’s leaving forever to live in solitude with the eggs. He rides off into the sunset never to be seen again.

[–] 5714@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

That's just how Pasolini writes books and I myself am perfectly fine with that, but I get that the end is not popular with some.

::: spoiler Tap for spoiler Galbatorix death created an unfillable power vacuum mortal non-mage Nasuada can only substitute to some degree. Eragon cannot really fight for the next 40 years or so for Nasuada - he has a duty to Saphira and all dragonkind.

[–] anivia@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah, but that was already foreshadowed on the first book when he received the prophecy from Angela. Him getting together with Arya would have made no sense in the first place.

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Him not getting with Arya was fine but reading it 12 years ago it felt like he pulled a Luke Skywalker.

“Thanks for the help, good luck cleaning up this mess”

You're supposed to add the text inside the (>!!<) Example

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Might you happen to be using one of the apps which hasn't implemented Lemmy markdown for spoilers yet?

[–] Lepsea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I use sync and it marks the spoiler for the "massive spoiler" and anything after that is not marked. I can also have app issues because it has quite low ratting there

Edit: Just downloaded voyager, it's a client issues

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hugo Wincing.

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Hugo knitting?

[–] doctordevice@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Clearly they all stem from the same triconsonantal root. Though I couldn't find one for رجن (assuming the Egyptian pronunciation).
