Okay, so geas isn't a word commonly spoken.

So, most people run into it via some branch of fantasy, be it d&d or books.

So, how did any of you guys pronounce it in your head before you looked it up?

Edit: ffs, should I say "so" again, or what? Never commente when brain dead, folks.

So I ran into this word in two different ways without realizing they were the same word. I saw it written down in various World of Darkness books (where I pronounced it phonetically), and I heard it spoken in the Laundry Files audiobooks (where they pronounce it "gesh"). It took me ages to figure out they were the same word.
