Somewhere between L and Near

Thank you!

is Lawliet pronounced Low-light or Law-lee-et? I always thought it was Law lee et but I've heard some people say Low-light

HELLO NAUGHTY CHILDREN, IT’S “LAWLIET” DISCOURSE TIME

Alright. The official pronunciation is, in fact, “low-light”, because the Japanese version is “Roraito”. Raito, as we all know, thanks to “Raito-kun”, translates to “Light”, with the “Ro” sound being substituted by a “Low”.

However, I dislike this pronunciation, because by no stretch of the English language does “Lawliet” come out sounding like “Lowlight”.

Some people refuse to pronounce it correctly and instead opt for a pronunciation that sounds more like “law-lee-ay”, which would make sense, as L is said to have a quarter French (or Italian, but let’s go with French for the sake of the argument) heritage. Some simply say “law-lee-ette”, closer to the way that my URL is spelled. I chose it because people often say that I exhibit the kind of traits that they would expect from a female version of L (though I hope that I’m kinder) and, in French, female versions of things often have the suffix “ette”. 

Ultimately, if you want to say it correctly and canonically, it is “lowlight”, but if you cannot bring yourself to, either of the other pronunciations, whilst not technically correct, are both recognisable as L’s name.

First of all, I need to comment on the statement that LOTR TV show is the 'next Game of Thrones' because GOT was the 'next Lord of the Rings' from the very beginning. It feels belittling to a book or a movie to say that it is the next (blank). I dislike the fact that a classic like LOTR can be called the 'next (blank)'. GOT maybe, because it is relatively new, but LOTR no, because it is far more loved and has always been 'the older brother of GOT'. I hope you understood what were the points I tried to make. Next comes the thought of the TV show itself. WE DON'T WANT IT AND WE DON'T NEED IT. The only good it will bring is the fact that the fandom will come alive again. But just like the Death Note fandom it will come alive so it can discuss the failure that the show will be. Lord of the Rings without the cast? The music? Hell, this was one of those adaptations that wasn't completely hated by the fandom and now you're telling me we need a new one that will be? Luckily, nothing is fully decided yet and who knows maybe the show never happens but if it does it will be instantly dismissed and hated as an adaptation that is supposed to 'replace' or 'be better' than the first one. I don't know what is up with movie and show creators but their lack of original content baffles me. Still, I know I shouldn't dislike something that doesn't exist yet, but I can dislike the idea of the LOTR show. Maybe it will be better (who am I kidding?), maybe worse or perhaps equal to the movies and/or books. All I will say there are better things to waste money on.

I felt the urge to bring back this old video of Ryan Higa, because it perfectly sums up tumblr lately. Think about it.
