I hope you don't mind that I bring up a rather linguistic topic [img]smile.gif[/img]
Before playing the game I allways pronounced savant like save on the first syllable and like releVANT on the second. I was quite surprised about the pronounciation in the game as I don't know any english words pronounced like that on the second syllable. My dictionary (oxford English of course) says that savant should be pronounced with the first a like in 'flat', the second like in 'arrival' and that the first syllable should be emphasized.
The in game pronounciation sounds actually rather rather french to me allthough I'm quite certain that french French wouldn't emphasize the 't' that much but rather pronounce it more nasal. Could the in game pronounciation be canadian French?
