Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, like goa'uld.

goa'uld.
And how might one pronounce this?
Go-awled? Go-a-oooled?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Depends on which character you ask and how lazy they're feeling that day. Technically "go-ah-ooold", often just "gooold".

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Occasionally an actor shoots for "go-ah-oold" and hits something like "goo-awld," or trips over their tongue, which is highly entertaining. Poor guest stars.

Heh. I like the variable pronunciations. It's the sort of thing that happens in real life, since different people have different abilities to hear and reproduce the nuances of another language.
Meanwhile, I'm contemplating committing fic. SG1-Discworld crossover. Yet another bunny to add to the overflowing hutch.

I do have to admit, I like it that Jack generally doesn't bother with the correction pronunciation. He seems to mostly say Go-oold, sometimes even goold.

Hee! SA just called me to pronounce "Teal'c" and "goa'uld" for me.
And now she's off to take an exam.

Kinsey always says "goold". Funny thing, of course -- the apostrophe in goa'uld makes sense to me, but the one in Teal'c? I think that was just Jack acting up.
