Вопрос по переводу
Работаю книгу (фэнтезийный роман, не наш мир), на сайте автора приведена транскрипция имен собственных. Но транскрипция сделана так, что ногу сломишь, внизу в комментариях читатели продолжают задавать уточняющие вопросы (ссылка: http://nkjemisin.com/2010/02/a-name-pronunciation-guide-for-100k/).
К тому же, я, медведь, привыкла к академическому способу записи, и хотела бы подтвердить правильность полученных при дешифровке результатов:).
Как бы вы, уважаемые, озвучили следующие имена, если основываться на авторских указаниях:
Yeine: YAY-neh (Yes, two syllables. This seems to be the biggest point of confusion.)
(комментарий от меня: автор на вопрос: Is the “ay” of your “yay” as in “yea”, or as in “eye”?
отвечает вот так:
It’s “yea”. :)
Viraine: vih-RAYN
Nahadoth: NA-ha-doth
Sieh: see-ay (no particular emphasis on either syllable)
Kurue: KOO-roo-ay, rolled “r”
Zhakkarn: jah-KARN (I prefer using the Mandarin pronunciation of the “zh”, though I don’t always get it right myself. Just sounds prettier.)
Itempas: ee-tem-pahs (no particular emphasis)
Enefa: EH-neh-fah
Dekarta: deh-KAR-tah
Scimina: sih-MEE-nah
Relad: reh-LAHD
T’vril: Tuh-VRIL (yes, I know there should be like a glottal stop there, but it’s a PITA to pronounce, so I don’t)
Ras Onchi: RAHS ON-chee
Wohi Ubm: WO-hee OO-bum
Gemd: GEH-mid
Shahar: shah-HAR
Kinneth: kih-NETH
Arameri: ah-rah-MEH-ree
And no, none of the names mean anything, and I didn’t consult a linguist to make the languages internally consistent, and I’m aware that some of the patterns of pronunciation contradict each other. Some of this is because the book is set in a multicultural society; that list of characters represents at least 7 different cultures, including that of the gods themselves (remember, they have their own language), each with its own naming conventions, and the usual overlap between cultures with frequent close contact. Some of it, however, is because I just made them up.
Заранее признательна за ответы:).
