How do you pronounce Kurnous?

[Opti]

Like the subject says. I have been lazy and pronounced it "Cure-An-Ose," but I know that isn't right, and now it is bugging me.

Is it "Kern-Ose?"
"Ker-Nowse?"
"Ker-No-Us?"
"Cure-Nohs?

Bah.

[Gorthaur]

Id say the first one, the rest don't seem right.

[Cihrai]

Ker-nohs would be my pronunciation.

[Atrophus]

I've always thought of it as Ker-noose.

[krael]

Heh, what Atrophus said, except I don't know how to pronounce 'ker' in english; in my head:
cur(as in curse) - noose.

[Cernunnos]

Like the old Celtic god, they just changed the spelling, the real god is Cernunnos, still pronounced as Koornos.

Hope this helps!!

"Ker" as in curse, then "noss" like the name/words Ross/Toss/Boss. Being Welsh I end to roll my "R" as well, but that's just a colloquialism that I carry.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's based on Cernunnos.

[Beithir Seun]

Yep, what several other people have said - Koornos

I like this version; Ker noss for me

[robtion]

I concur with ker as in her or fur, and noss as in moss or boss. Ker-noss, has a nice ring to it really

[Pigey]

I always had a problem with this, especially because I used to pronounce it the French way "Koor-nooss." I had no clue in English, so thanks guys!

[Opti]

Awesome. Ker-noss it is.

[popisdead]

Ker-noose? Ask Alan Merrit next time you see him :P

[Andrew]

Ker-nus. I must be the only one!

Ker as in kernel, -ous as in dangerous.

Since Cernunnos is a French Celtic deity (at least the only known historical depiction specifically of Him is from France) I would say a French pronunciation is as likely to be accurate as anything else.
