No worries, but read my initial post. I was simply and stating what I'd heard. A man from Iceland was on the Planet Destiny Pod cast, and he was talking about it. He said that Gjallarhorn was a very old Nordic word, and that Icelandic still uses a lot of old Nordic vocalisations. He pronounced it Gatt-le-hon. So if they still pronounce it the old way in Iceland, then that's most likely the original way to pronounce it. Langauge and pronounciation change radically over time. I studied Old English, which bears no resemblance to current English. Simple example: Knight is pronounced 'night', but was was pronounced ker-nig-tah. As you say, things change, and although you pronounce it with a Y, (as do I), a person with a better grasp on the history and significance of the original word pronounces it differently than both of us. I'm sorry that I didn't bother to initially back this up, I wasn't expecting a Swede to step in a make an issue of it.
