poll: what is the first vowel in the word wyvern?

Followup poll to the one this is a reply to: What's the first vowel in the word wyvern, and do you speak American English or some other variety?

@Felthry uhhhh whatever leo.org says I don't think I've ever heard that word 😁

@noiob it's not the most common word but I'm surprised you haven't come across it at all

@Felthry I've read it, I know what it means (sth like a dragon, but not quite the same thing?), I just don't listen to a lot of fantasy stuff or play any games that had them

@noiob ooh, that's different then, okay

the difference is the a wyvern has two legs and a dragon has four

@Felthry ah right

I mean there's a lot of different designs for dragons with four legs too, I am quite fond of the "big ass worm" design which doesn't really get used anymore in popular fantasy

@monorail @noiob no, trogdor has two legs and an arm, making him a trogdor
