How are you guys pronouncing this?
Personally, I’ve found it sounds kind of nice when said like “Loon tea”.
12 0 ReplyIt's finnish, so like it's written. Foreign concept for english speakers, I know.
24 0 ReplyIt is quite literally a foreign concept to anyone who only speaks English. That's how foreign languages work.
How is the word pronounced though?
9 0 ReplyI'm a finn, so the only advice I can give is that it's pronounced like luanti in finnish.
Not very useful, I know, sorry. Nau ai häv tu kou präktis mai rälli inglish.

It just looks like "Loo wan tee" to me.
Edit: Actually, just read the article, and considering the name Luanti is a mix between the Finnish word "creation" and the LUA programming language; and I'm preeetty sure LUA is pronounced "loo-wah" or "lew-ah", I think the Luanti pronunciation is more likely to be "loo-wun-tee".

Except Loo (Lew) instead of Luh Lu-Auntie.
