Shower thoughts... need explanation

hey guys,

not so much posts recently. i was wondering how YOU pronounce the runes in diablo 2,
im from germany so i pronounce the "UM-Rune" ʊm(phonetic alphabet) engl. book (Buch) [bʊk] <-- just an example kinda hard to describe

the problem now is: if u want to say it in englisch, do you just speak out the letters? bc sayin it in one word sound kinda strange to me

with zod its pretty easy. one word easy to say and similiar in german and englisch.

the more im thinking of it it gets really strange. do you say I-S-T Rune or Iced-rune(thats how i would pronounce it in englisch) --> in german its just like Est-rune. but the s is strong

hope someone will actually understand this post. ;)
