Vulpes Inculta pronounces Caesar very oddly.

The Legion pronounces it "KAI-sar". The NCR calls him "SEE-zer".

This is amazing.

The right way to pronounce it IS Kai-sahr.
At least, Wikipedia says so. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_%28title%29

I will be upset however, if Vulpes doesn't pronounce his name as "Wulpes".

It is "cee-sar"...in English. It's "Kai-zer" in classical Latin. Just how they pronounced their C.


Enduring: I was thinking about that. It'll probably be Wulpes if they're this serious about pronunciation.

EVERYTHING I THOUGHT I KNEW IS A LIE.



You have to wonder though how somebody after a nuclear war where most books are destroyed and education isn't mandatory for children would know the correct pronunciation, especially with the see-zur pronunciation being so popular and most teachings probably being passed down vocally.

Lily's voice....

I'm sorry, she's not gonna be my companion.

As for Caesar? It makes sense now that I think about it.

I think Julius Caesar's thanking the Roman Gods now that SOMEONE in the media world has finally gotten his name pronounced correctly. The devs are worthy in his eyes.

*insert picture of crying, happy Julius Caesar*
