It's SAHwen or SAHween.

As in, Halloween.

Actually, it(the craftworld) IS pronounced Sam Hine by the studio guys if you ask them. It was also pointed out in the 3rd edition Craftworld sub-dex as the proper pronunciation.

They seem to have taken the names, but nothing else.
They are pronounced differently, and have no other references to their source.

Actually more correctly - Pronunciation...since that is what we are talking about here. He wants to know how to say certain words, not how to say them clearly.

I go Row-boo Ghee-a-men. Anyone else?

What about Leman Russ? Lay-men Russ?

Also I haven't seen it yet, but I say Zench. One syllable.

I've also found that different parts of the world pronounce words differently (who would have thought?)

I say it (and have heard it in an audiodrama) as Ruh-boot Gool-ih-man.

Leman Russ I pronounce as spelled, Lee-man Russ.

Tzeentch I say like Tseench, as other people said, the beginning is like the z in pizza.
