For me it is now quite clear. It means, that if I read it as if it was a phonetically written Czech word, then I read it well. Which is good, because that's the way I like it ;-)

Well i thought you said it like you would say urukai(off lord of the rings) or duru-chee or dru-ki but i think the duru-kai sounds better :)

Except it was Uruk Hai. And that film got so much stick for the over enunciation of everything. THey're still doing it these days on some sketch shows. U - ruk -hai is three sylables, Dru- chii is just two. Not even Sir Ian McKellan could scrape another one out of it for all his skills at word mangling.

well personally i pronounce it droo-kai, but most of my friends pronounce it drew-chee. i prefer the first as, to me, it sounds more harsh and suits the druchii more than the softer drew- chee
