How Do You Pronounce Ys?

Is it "yis", "Wise", "Ise", "eyes" or do you simply say the letter Y followed by the letter S?

Here is an X Plays video review of Ys Seven and they say it like a plural E

Like you would "east", except without the "t" sound. Only correct way.

Yeah, they're not quite saying it correctly. The "s" sound should be as you pronounce it in "super." It shouldn't sound like a "z."

It's イース not イーズ

I've always pronounced it as "Ease".

Thats how I always said it, and to be honest its one of my fave series out there! :D

i learned as a kid its pronounced "eece" as in fleece but with no fl

I've always said it like "why es".

I hear the correct way is to say "ease," but I refuse to pronounce it that way given its spelling and still call it "wise."

I pronounce it "ees" with a sharp S.

So it seems everyone just pronounces it however they see it to be pronounced. lol. I always said "yiz", until I heard Mark from Classic Game Room say "wise".

It is pronounced like "ease" and there is no other way to pronounce it, though I can see where there might be confusion.

Eace.

In swedish (and many other languages) the letter Y represents a unique vowel sound so I pronounce it "ys", which is close, but not at all identical to "ease".

Wikipedia says it's pronounced "ees". Apparently, its an actual mythical city.
