<![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV - Kotaku Comments]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV - Kotaku Comments]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> I'm glad that I haven't totally lost my college Japanese skills yet...this is seriously the opportunity of a lifetime! I'm hoping that by June 1st maybe they'll post a little more information (like where the hell to send your audition materials) but in any case, I'm totally going for it. Anyone else on board?

I'm hoping that there aren't *too* many other music majors that can speak Japanese AND like video games out there...>_<

]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> I hate when I read comments on a post, only to find out that 90% of them are to complain about grammar. Seriously, *who freaking cares?* You obviously knew what he meant. You just sound like a pretentious jackass whenever you correct grammar in a post. Get over yourselves. Or go start your own damn blog (which will of course, be errorless).

As for the topic on hand... I really think it's kind of silly that this is only open for people who speak Japanese. Like someone said above, it will really limit entries. But oh well, I think it's a cool idea none the less.

My firefox spell-checking has been down for a couple of weeks.

Don't you have anything better to complain about?

Wait, you *were* talking about a zither that you strike with hammers, right? Dulcimer tones?

The word is dulcet, Luke. Dulcet.

I guess you could be kidding, too. If so, well played, my friend. Well played.

]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> @banditos: "Celda" is a reference to that game's cell-shaded art-style. Cell-shaded + Zelda = Celda. Not a misspelling.

On the other hand, it's effing "dulcet." Gawker needs a copy editor.

]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> I'm the farthest thing from a spelling nazi out there (just look up some of my previous posts) but as a fan of etymology this one just grates:

dulcet (duhl-sit)
-adjective
1. pleasant to the ear; melodious

(Comes from the old french "doucet", or "sweet")

]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> In another article, they misspell "Zelda" as "Celda". Come on, guys, that's an easy one.

Joel Johnson

]]> <![CDATA[Get Your Dulcet Tones In Final Fantasy IV]]> You know, aside from the over-zealous grammar nazi attacks, it could very easily be a sly reference to the tradition of Final Fantasy games containing a character called Cid.....

Either I've helped save someone's embarrassment or I've just given them an alibi.
