gumbology Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 lol... When actually speaking about it to anyone, it's either "the full title," or "the old republic," or "the new star wars mmo." But in my head, while i'm reading forums, i usually hear something like "swo tor." Think "kotor" but with an S, or an Sw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah exactly the same, I don't really like abreviations as it makes whatever you're talking about exclusive to those in the "niche". If I were writing about the game though I'd just put TOR or SWTOR if it's going to someone I know has an idea of what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybbie Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Swotor or just Star wars but after reading this will try my very best to switch to sweater :sul_wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delsana Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) Uh.... The proper pronunciation based on the English language structuring rules would be: The letter SThe letter WAnd then the word "TORE" (I tore a piece of a paper off my pad of legal binding). Trying to make it "SWEATER" makes no sense and violates half a dozen rules. Edited December 15, 2011 by Delsana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashbrother Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Why would anyone include the SW when they can just say TOR? When The Elder Scrolls IV - Skyrim came out, did people call it TES4 Skyrim? No, they just called it Skyrim. The Elder Scrolls part is the same as the Star Wars part. No one should care to say it because it's already implied. TOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlockX Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Swah'tooor! No, that's not serious, but I still say it to amuse people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moiraesfate Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 S.W.T.O.R. Its called "initials". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoroth Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Swotor is the most common pronounciation, I think. Probably because it's so close to KOTOR. Kinda fitting, don't you think? After Kotor came Swotor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoroth Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) S.W.T.O.R. Its called "initials". Yeah, but so is the word LASER. Doesn't keep people from saying it differently, or write "laser" with lower case letters, even though that's technically wrong.

Klandri Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I have been saying "Ess-vaff-Tore" or just Tore Note that "vaff" is the Icelandic pronunciation of "vee" but after reading this thread I'm definitely switching to Sweater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
