Veronica Roth has heard some pretty funky pronunciations of Divergent characters and factions over the past year, so she literally spelled it all out for us in her latest blog!
Characters
Tris: TRIH-ss (As opposed to “treece” or “tryce,” both of which I’ve heard.)
Tobias: Tuh-BYE-us
Uriah: Yer-EYE-uh
Jeanine: Juh-NEENFactions
Divergent: Die-ver-jen-t
Abnegation: Ab-neg-ay-shun
Amity: Am-it-ee
Candor: Can-der
Dauntless: Dawn-t-less
And the big one:
Erudite: Air-yoo-dyte
Were you pronouncing any of these incorrectly before Veronica cleared it up?
