Kate Reading uses three or four different pronunciations of Birgitte alone, depending on the book. And I don't believe I have heard the supposed correct pronunciation of Tar Valon on any of the audiobooks (apparently even the pronunciation in the glossary is wrong).

Tar Val-AHN is apparently how it should be pronounced. At least, that's how Brandon Sanderson pronounces it, and other people who have heard it from Robert Jordan himself. It sounds wrong, though, so I still pronounce it the other way.

Don't count on the pronunciation to be fully accurate.

Huh, that's how I've been saying it. Innate geniusness strikes again? *NM*
