I've just seen the "official pronunciation guide", and no. No. It's drunk. Or dyslexic. Stop raping my language America.

HAIR-IN-HALL.
*Note that "official" doesn't match up to GRRM's own pronunciations. So uh, fuck the show-makers :P
For example, Martin calls her "Sir-Say", whereas that guide would tell you it's "Sir-See".

Qarth – QUARTH
MAYBE ALL OF YOUR ACTORS SHOULD STOP SAYING IT LIKE "KARTH" THEN HBO. IT'S KARTH, NOT QUARTH. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A KIND OF QUEEF.
Lys – LICE
No. I pronounce it Liss because it MAKES SENSE. WHY WOULD YOU NAME A COUNTRY LICE.
SAIR. SAIR. SSSSSSSSSSSSAIR.
WE DID NOT HAVE SAIR LANCELOT. WE HAVE SIR, AND GEORGE LIKES E'S IN EVERYTHING SO IT'S SER. SAIR JAMIE LANNISTER, SAIR BARRIESTEN SELMY, SAIR GREGOR CLEGANE.
THESE ARE INCORRECT, YOU FUCKING RETARDS.
SER IS SIR WITH AN E. HOW HARD IS IT.
I'm so sorry.

That was a draft, you know that right? As the self-proclaimed GoT moderator of this thread, I'd just like to say that George pronounces Lys as LEASSSE. Like you are leasing an apartment. Also, George is very relaxed about pronunciation, stating that everyone has their own way of saying and seeing characters, so he won't ruin that for them. HOWEVER, he does say that Catelyn is not Caitlyn, and Cersei should be either Sir-see or Sir-say. Sansa is also not Saaaaansa.
Personally, I find mispronunciation disgusting and attack those who speak such vulgarity. I do tend to say Sir-see, though...
