Colic-duss doesn't sound right to me. I prefer coll-ice-dus.

Oh, and… Was it helpful? How about "No, there's no need.". But it's interesting, I guess.

Or "No, because in _no_ language would a word that looks like that be pronounced like that."

Touché, I guess.

But wouldn't the creator of a word decide how he wants it to be pronounced?

So it's not pronounced ne-rod-ex or ne-ro-dex?

How is it pronounced?

Nerodex, I bet, accented on the second syllable so that it sounds vaguely like neurotics ^_^

I thought it was-

Col-Is-E-Duss

And just in case-

In-ver-tin

I thought it was obvious, but if I was that wrong with Colic's name..
