In Response To: What does Wyrd rhyme with? (Zandervix)

: No, really, I don't know. How do you pronounce this?

: Zandervix

Although I've heard people rhyme it with "bird" (as in "word"), it's actually a pretty common word from Middle English and should be pronounced closer to "beard" (as in "weird", which is how Shakespeare spelled it).
