How to pronounce "therian"
What is the proper pronunciation of therian? I was wondering because I've heard it as both theh-ree-uhn and te-ree-uhn.

RE: Ask TG!
It is Th-air-ee-en. I have heard the "te-ree-uhn" pronunciation because of accents, or regional pronunciation differences. Both are likely acceptable, but the former is correct.

It depends on where you're from!

I've heard it "th-air-ee-an" like there-ee-an. But I've also heard it "th-eerie-an" like theory-an". I say it with "eerie" in the middle.

I just pronounce it how it comes naturally in Slovenian and interestingly this is how it comes out.

The same trick also works for pronouncing GIF (the image format).

If you think I'm wrong just say so. Let's talk about it.
Most problems are man-made.

I pronounce it as teh-ree-an, I blame PD and Thorn for that. I also personally find the other pronunciations weirdly mystical.

I go with th-ee-ree-un. That’s how my brain reads it.
