It's funny how English speaking gamers incorrectly call Zhalo

Being obviously based on AK-47 it, as many other titles in Destiny, has Russian word in its title. Zhalo means "sting" in Russian and "zh" should be pronounced differently. For example, as you would say Jacques or Jean in French. You can listen how it's pronounced on Google translate: https://translate.google.com/#en/ru/sting

    This is Destiny not America, Russia, or whatever other damned country out there. In Destiny we call Gjallarhorn a Gallarhorn not a Yallerhorn. In Destiny we call Zhalo a Zalo not a Zhalah. To get that Zh sound you should try this. Say prestige now say it without the presti part. The "ge" is the sound of "zh". But this is [b]DESTINY[/b] so we shall call it Zalo. Edit: In Destiny we say Zalo or Zaylo as in Z-Halo without the "h" sound.
