How do you pronounce “Oerkki”?

by Wuzzy » Sat Sep 21, 2013 21:45

The Oerkki was a mob in old Minetest versions and today it is part of one of PilzAdam’s mods.
The question is: How do you pronounce “Oerkki”?
I'm creating MineClone 2, a Minecraft clone for Minetest.
I made the Help modpack, adding in-game help to Minetest.

One question, so many answers … lol

I have to admit, that I also tended to the German pronounciation.

I had seen them referred to as "ghosts", which makes sense because the original 0.3 oerkki turned invisible in the dark and are shaped sorta like ghosts.
