A Serious Issue
This has been approached many times (at least me). It is in fact about graal. Now, as you read that last sentence, did you read aloud in your head the words? When I do, I read "Grayl". Others would read "Grawl".

So here's the big question.

How do YOU pronounce it?

We're not here for algebra.
And so you know, I'm sure 3x more people will read this because of the title.

Like Grail is the correct way.

But I just say it like "Grall"

From the fingers of Stefan himself, it's Gra all.

I can't help but remember another thread concerning the question of what the proper pronunciation of "Graal" was. If memory serves, I think it was Stefan who answered this question some time ago saying that it was never really set in stone or anything; just however a person would rather say it.
Personally I go with "grail."

According to Stefan, its Grawl, not Grail. That does not stop me from misprouncing it, though.
