Ra's Al Ghul

Description

OK so I have a burning question that maybe someone can answer in regards to the old demon's head here. In TAS his name is pronounced (Ray-shh) Al Ghul, but in Nolan's trilogy he's pronounced (Ra-s). Anyone know what the correct pronunciation is? I prefer TAS version personally.

Enjoy.

Actually,being of both Arabic and Hebrew descent neither is fully correct , however the Nolanverse one is closer to the original Arabic,the TAS and Official DC pronunciation is a weird-ass mix of Arabic and Hebrew(To be clear,Semitic languages do not contain hard "ay" sounds,that`s exclusive to English and the Latin Romance languages)Denny O` Neil pulled out of his ass after speaking with a university student(Neither of whom were either Arabic or Semitic Jewish,there`s a difference between New York Jews like O` Neil and most DC staff and legit Semitic ones like Ra`s is descended from).  I explain the confusion and its source in greater detail in this video:www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9O00F…
