Ok.. it's a little thing.. but it is kinda annoying....

The word 'Golem' SHOULD be pronounced with a long 'o' as in 'goal'.. but it's being pronounced with an 'o' as in 'orange'.. as per Smeagol's nom de guerre in LOTR.

They aren't the same word.

I rather like the eemon pronunciation of Eamon's name, though aymon would have been cooler. Heck, I just like the name.



When it comes to golem, however, I'm not too concerned, since English takes words from lots of different cultures. Some words are Anglicized in pronunciation, and some retain their original pronunciation. It's how English continues to grow as a language.
