NiGHTS and Reala has a variation called "Theme of a Tragedic Revenge." The word should be "tragic," but it's not. So, just for fun, how do YOU pronounce it? :P

I've always seen it as "tra-GE-dic," but "TRA-ge-dic" makes more sense...

Hm.. I guess I've always thought 'tragEdic' also. I'm good at pronouncing things in NiGHTS wrong, lol. I always said 'Real-uh', Eye-dee-ya', etc.

Tragedic actually is tragic, because tragic tranlates "trajedik" in my language turkish. :D No idea why sonic team wrote it like that.

:(

Yeah and from an old thread a while back I may have been the only one who pronounced Reala "rell-ah" I still do :x

Edit: and it should always be EYE-DEE-YA because I can't stand hearing "idiot" in a forced accent x_x

I feel like if I actually thought about it before saying it, I would say "Tra-GEE-ic". But I don't thing. I just speak. And it comes out "Tragic".

4 for Team EYE-DEE-YA! I still say it like that just because I hate saying it like "Idiot".

...although I did say Reala's name like "reality"... if that can be considered wrong.

When it comes to this song, I'm a gutless flip-flopper.

If I'm typing it, I spell it 'Theme of a Tragedic Revenge'. However, when I say it, I either say 'Tragic' or tra-JEH-dic.

EDIT: Also, since I'd never heard of the Ideya before JoD*I was oblivious to NiGHTS's existence outside of SADX* I pronounced it Ih-dee-yah. I also pronunce Reala's name differently. When referring to JoD, I say, Ree-ah-la or Ree-aw-la. When referring to NiD, I say Ree-lah or Rae-lah.

  • Interests:Hello, my name is Eivana. I have a lot of interests, probably way too many to post right now. I am currently learning French, so if you speak to me you'll probably hear me throw out some random French words just to get the practice in. I love video games, some being Tomb Raider, Sonic the Hedgehog, King of Fighters, Pokemon and Digimon.<br /><br />I love to talk to people and get to know them. If you want to talk to be, don't be shy. I love making new friends.
I meant to choose the second one, but I chose the first. Ugh.

But honestly, to make it simple and to keep from feeling stupid, I just say tragic. It's much easier. And people don't look at you like you skipped one too many days of language classes.

I've only just noticed that it's spelt like that, I've always thought it was 'Theme of a Tragic Revenge' was that a mistake? or is Tragedic a real word?

I believe it is not a real word. Can't find a definition and it shows as a spelling error.

I've always said traGEdic.

For me it's TRA-ge-dic. Weird typo, why did they leave it for JoD soundtrack?

Many words are invented for video-games/movies/.... it's just how it is, it's not really a typo.

This. This is what I do for 'Tragedic' but it seems like I must be the only stooge who thought Ideya was pronounced 'I-day-uh' XD (Don't know why 'dey' equaled the sounding out of 'day' but hey I was young.) I was also 'real-uh' until JoD and now I always stick to the JoD pronunciations for everything, though I usually slip up on Ideya.
