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)

This chart makes things much clearer. Arigato

[–] Thavron@lemmy.ca 22 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yes but do you pronounce it oregano or oregano.

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Unpopular opinion but both are wrong. It's oregano

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Pronounce the "g" like in "gif"

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago

And the "o" as in "people"

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

Orejano? Is that in Spanish or something?

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

Oh-REG-a-no

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

This is the correct answer.

The mods dont want us to know it!

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks 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 3 weeks ago

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

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

depends your native language and regional accent

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

[–] Todd_cross@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 weeks ago

Shoulda replaced it with Aragon in Spain

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks 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.

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Where's my second name on that list?

[–] RevolverSly@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

What about northeastern Spain autonomous community?

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 4 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks 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 3 weeks ago

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

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

Hugo Wincing.

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

Hugo knitting?

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

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

[–] CluckN@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The ending to Eragon was more disappointing than the movie.

[–] lady_maria@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks 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 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 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.

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

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

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

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks 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 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks 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
