The thing that everyone keeps saying should be cringe but Trails handled surprisingly well.

A little girl called Claire foreshadowed the future of Joshua and Estelle.

Oh, that’s it? I do remember her now though.

Anyway, you’ll be hearing that from quite a few NPCs, so eh.

Oh, hey. I finally found the guild. Been running around town getting judged by people for like 10 minutes now. It's finally time to meet Sche... Schar... Scher... Charizard. Yeah.

The problem with Schera is that it's pronounced like Esquerra Republicana, and Cataluña politics isn't exactly the sort of thing I want in my cute anime fantasy.

A treasure chest almost the size of a human...

Something like this sort of ranking triggers a mixed reaction from me. Winning more means stuff that helps you win. I accept it a whole lot in FE, as rewards for being strategic- for visiting every village before bandits get there, beating thieves to all the treasures, and the occasional bonus condition etc.. But outright rankings feels different to me, more unfair to less skilled players.

I'm pretty sure it's pronounced "share-a." "share-a-zard."

Yeah, you know what, I think I'll just call her Charizard.

It’s a single tear rolling down a smile emoji. What I’m trying to say is, unless I’m reading the political thing wrong or you’re reading the name wrong, they sound nothing alike.

Dammit Game Freak, so baised you ensured Charizard would get into another video game series and be the first Pokemon in a non-Ninty title.

Is it due to the Catalán or over there you really pronounce ch with a Hard-C/K/Q sound?

It's in English that ch is pronounced with a hard k sound, right? Or am I just wrong here? English is so fickle... Anyway, no, in Castillian Spanish "ch" never has a "k" sound.

You're trying to read both in English. I was reading Schera in English and Esquerra in Spanish, which results in them sounding alike. If I think of Schera in Spanish, it just sounds awful. Then again, maybe I'm just thinking of Schera the completely wrong way.

So my solution is to call her Charizard.

Yeah, Esquerra sounds way closer in Spanish unless I read it wrong like that too.

But, for academic purposes, what makes Schera in Spanish sound awful?

while true, a postive feedback loop is really important in games to make the player feel like they achieved something

Okay, had to make sure. I mean, considering you guys have Castilian, Basque, Catalan, Aragonese, Asturo-Leonese, Galician, etc... all running around over there...

It sounds like "cherry", but ends with an a and has a random s in front.

Not that bad, it just sounds weird.

Yeah, Spain's a mess. Heck, where I live old people speak a sort of Galicia-Castilian hybrid that's utterly incomprehensible.

That's where Ali Baba came from, right?

Ali Baba in Berwick Saga is one of Pisaro's underlings, alongside Pedro.

...There, I'm calling her Pedro from now on.

That's language evolution for ya. After all, all but Basque evolved from the same Visigothic-Latin hybrid with some sprinkle of Bedouin Arabic.

And then of course, you have the Latin American dialects of Spanish that mix things up further. And the less we talk about Chilean Spanish the better.

How different are all of those types?

Pedrozard.

Or you could be cultured like me and just call her Aerial, but you’re not that far yet.

Gotta say, so far I'm liking all the characters. Josh is kinda boring, but the rest are great. Estelle, Walking Dead Man, Pedro... I like 'em.

Very. Like, "you need to learn them" different.

Enough.

For Basque: Well enough.

It's actually the only not related to any of the others of the bunch. Heck, Basque is not even Indo-European.

Yeah, Basque is a beast of its own. Though you can't underestimate the others. If you don't know them, you can sort of tell they're familiar, but you still gotta put in some effort to learn them or you won't get anywhere.

Fun fact, also Aladdin.

The original version where Aladdin was from China.
