That's like saying you are English if you are from USA.  You speak the same language therefore you are English.

Furball, the folks in Mexico call it "Spanish." The folks in Spain call it "Spanish." The folks in USA call it "English." The folks in England call it "English."

It's just the name, doesn't mean it's the exact same language :) As you can see there are things you can say in England that a Yank wouldn't be able to follow at all.

I believe the difference between Spain/CentralAmerica is more than that, down to the way certain things are prononuced and spoken. More of a different language, but carries the same name. At least that's how a Spanish teacher explained it to me once.

Mmmm... little differences. I think is like English of UK and English of Australia. My English is very rubbish, but I can understand something, with aussies it's impossible.

I have a funny anecdote to fit here. I went to the USA to meet a few of my associates, most of whom I hadn't met before. Turns out, that out of 5 people there, 3 of them were British, 1 from NZ, and only 1 local. All of them were of course living there, but language was not quite what I figured to be the standard Yank thing...

No one ever says my name right either....ever.

Most popular pronounciation I hear ingame is "Check six Halycon!"

I've also been called:

Hackelyon
Halssoooooonn (think the guy was drunk)
Haloyn

IT'S HAL-SEE-YON.

Don't get me started...

Trees, Tree-eyes, tress, trezz, trizz...

Its pronounced like TRAYS. Its the French word for 13, I took it because a) Its also the name of my favorite character from the anime series "Gundam Wing", and b) The Romanian word (Treizepreseche) is just too damn long.

Sorry to hijack wenig Banane. :p

Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.
