Psh, anything in English is easy to pronounce.
Sometimes you have to do it through tough thorough thought though.

On the subject of people using words not good. The plural of Eldar is Eldar. There's one Eldar. There's a lot of Eldar. Not Eldars.

What is an Eldar? Sounds like a misspell of Aeldar to me. And the plural of Aeldar is Aeldari, obviously.

Language evolves. How do you think we have so many languages on earth? At one point the whole population was only speaking a few languages - now we have hundreds. You might notice how some of those words sounds the same for the same meaning even with a huge cultural divide. I think mispronunciation probably has a lot to do with it.

If we fail to anticipate the unforeseen or expect the unexpected in a universe of infinite possibilities, we may find ourselves at the mercy of anyone or anything that cannot be programmed, categorized or easily referenced.
