TOPIC | How do I pronounce....
1 2
1. COATL

(I say it as Coh -Ah - Tl)

it could be pronounced COTLE

2. PRIMAL

(I say it as Pr - EYE - mal)

It could be pronounced PR - IH - MAL with an ih sound, like in the word, linguistics

Help?

COATL:

COATL:

Coh-tl
What? I've never heard anyone call it ''pr-ih-mal'' pree-mal? Also the correct pronunciation is Coh-ah-tl (due to the Coatl's affiliation with Quetzalcoatl)

So, technically we're all pronouncing it wrong, but that last silent -tl is awkward to say. As for primal, I pronounce it like a combination of pry (as in to pry a can open) and mal (as in animal).
