My first time posting. Greetings from New York City!

I've always gone for pronouncing it Vol-deh-more because mort means death in 
French and that's very appropriate re: You-Know-Who.  Volde is a verb form in 
Adelic (the Elven language Tolkien created) and also in the Scandanavian 
languages (Denmark, Norway), but I have no idea what it means. 

And then again, I've always said Hah-grid and not Ha-grid and I turned out to 
be wrong.  :-)
