How do you pronounce this word?

[Androxine Vortex]

Aeon

Do you say,

A-on

or

E-on


I personally call it A-on

 

[Reaver]

I say A-on as well.

 

[CupofJoe]

A-on [from Aeon Flux...]

 

[Gryphos]

I say E-on

 

[Kobun]

Googled it so I could say I pronounced it right (a-on) and discovered I say it wrong. Apparently it's e-on.

 

[teacup]

A-on. I also just finished playing Final Fantasy 10 and it was pronounced A-on in that
I've never heard it pronounced the other way.

 

[stephenspower]

I used to A-on until I realize the "ae" was pronounced with a long e as in Caesar.

 

[Reaver]

I've always known that eon is the correct way but a-on sounds cooler.

 

[Legendary Sidekick]

I pronounce Aeon Flux as /kum-PLEET GAR-bij/.

 

[Androxine Vortex]

I've always known that eon is the correct way but a-on sounds cooler.

Well I think when people refer to a long time period I think eon is better yet at the same time expect it to be spelled that way. Almost any other time I have seen the spelling aeon it meant something otherworldly or magical.

 

[Reaver]

I pronounce Aeon Flux as /kum-PLEET GAR-bij/.

What do you know about Aeon Flux you crazy #@%*^+=? You can take your opinion and !@$^&**(>+= a mentally challenged mime! Then you can >?*&%$#@! festering piles of !@$#%&*/><" and )+=*&^%$#!? a rabid aardvark's !@#$#@!%^&* until your eyeballs fall out.

 

[Androxine Vortex]

Wow Reaver was so upset he posted his rant twice. What have we done? It's a sign of the end times.

 

[Reaver]

I deleted one. You can leave the fallout shelters.

 

[Androxine Vortex]

I deleted one. You can leave the fallout shelters.

 

[JBCrowson]

I used to A-on until I realize the "ae" was pronounced with a long e as in Caesar.

strictly ae is more like a long I sound like running ah-ee together very quickly. And caesar was therefore more like kaiser.

 

[Finchbearer]

This thread is archaic, but I would pronounce it slightly more like eee-on

 

[pmmg]

I am not sure id of given it much thought. I might have said something like I-on. But, the ad is definitive for me.

 

[pmmg]

Well. Crud. The video does not show and i cant really fix that on my phone. They call Ee-on.
