    Stupid mistakes you make and don't pick up for ages.

    So I just realized that I've been calling/read 'Eliv Thade' as 'Evil Thade' forever and I only just realized my mistake.

    Anyone else wanna share novice neopets mistakes they've made.

    I said "Sword of Skarsden" for like four years before I realised it was actually "Skardsen". Also "Nermkid" instead of "Nerkmid" D:

    I also said Maracite instead of 'Maractite'
    Maracite and Skardsen sound so much cooler!

    Okay well I didn't think I did stuff like this until reading this.
    Turns out I've been saying Maractite wrong x_x

    Oh, I still say Sword of Skarsden. Sounds much cooler. Skardsen just sounds like a german person struggling to say garden

    I know right? Plus the anagram works out the same

    Oh, I also seem to be the only person who pronounces "mynci" correctly -- it's meant to be monkey in Welsh, but they fucked it up (mwnci). Anyway, it's meant to be like "min-kee"...my boyfriend for example pronounces it "min-see" xD

    Oh, I pronounce that min-chee anyway haha. I don't think it was meant to be with a w though, I think they just based it on the welsh and adapted it. I love the origins of some of the names of Neopets, especially Gelert (great story though heartbreaking) and Bruce (just plain funny).

    Blumaroo: I thought it was "blum" as in "bum". My friend and I fought for ages before we just looked up the proper neopian pronunciation. I was defeated mercilessly.
