>>375832487
>In the code for the Japanese version of the game, Smough's name is displayed as '処刑者スモウ', which translates to read as 'Executioner Sumou'.

It's a pun on sumo wrestlers in both Japanese and English, so it rhymes with "snow".

Hawkeye Gough, another giant who even knowns Smough, says his own name. It would make the most sense to say it like his name.

Goff. Smoff.

literally end yourself
>>
Canon way is スモウ
>>
>>375833674
Insightful
>>
>>375834224
Not an argument

> In the Japanese version, he is known as 鷹の目ゴー, or Taka no Me Gou, with the " f " sound being absent at the end.
>>
>>375832487
English pronunciation never makes any sense and follows no rules but I think it should be /smoʊ/.
>>
>>375832753
Smuff is a particular styling of a ladies pubic hair. I doubt the Japs didn't know.
>>
>>375832487
wait a second

whys he holding his hammer upside down

>>375833763

Executioner Smow

smough is pronounced smoff. gough is a name in real life and is pronounced as such in reality and in-game.

>>375834189
correcto

>>375834442
oh im sorry i had no idea we were using japanese pronunciations, guess i should say Taka no Me instead of hawkeye
>>
>>375832487
smo
>>
>>375834275
Yes, I do. You do know that Gough is one of the Four Knights of Gwyn though, right? Gough would know Smough and as they are both giants from the same place, it wouldn't be farfetched for it to sound the same.

>>375834442
I do not speak or read Japanese, do not play Japanese versions of games, so that hardly applies. OP was obviously asking about the English name and pronunciation. I'm not going to say MAKUDONARUDO is the English pronunciation of McDonald's just because that is how they do it over there.
>>
>>375834442
Who gives a shit about how some random Jap tried to transliterate a fake name into katakana. The Japanese version of the game still uses English voice dialogue so any Jap playing the game would be hearing Gough pronounce his own name like cough

This TBQH

I know it's probably not right but I know the actual pronunciation is probably some retarded shit I don't even want to bother with
>>
>>375833674
That's "Smough" like it!
>>
>>375835202
>some random Jap
It's a Japanese game.
>>
>>375835367
With English dialogue that does not have anything approaching a Japanese accent.
>>
>>375835367
Random Jap who had no involvement whatsoever in the spoken pronunciation of names since the entire game is spoken in English even in Japan. Why would they way he writes katakana change the fact that in every version of the game he says his own name like cough?

its a pun on sumo
>>
>>375833664
As stolen from reddit:
Japanese here. It's スモウ(sumou), so it's pronounced "smo."
>>
>>375835730
>>375835738
i can see the pun, but THE GAME ITSELF pronounces it smoff. there is only one answer to how you pronounce smough, and the game tells you. it's the ONLY SOURCE.
>>
smo
sumo
not smuff like gough
>>
>>375835920
the game never pronounces smoughs name, you hear gough pronounce his name as goff and because of the ambiguity of ough in english dumb people think the guy named sumo is smoff
>>
>>375835203

remember that time they ditched this majestic shit after they released the first movie and went with a fucking wyvern?
