Thor's hammer was called Miolnir. As with many words & names of medieval Norse, to pronounce it correctly one must "forget" how the letters sound in English. "Miolnir", rather than being pronounced "Me-ol-neer" would be pronounced "M-yu-nr". The M is partially silent, the L is completely silent and the R is pronounced by rrrrrolling the toungue. The name is said with a flat inflection when spoken as part of a statement. When it is the operating word at the end of a question the inflection should increase over the N, and if said as part of an exclamation ("By Miolnir, that was close", etc) the stress should be placed over the Y.

Thor's hammer is pronounced as "Mjölnir" (pronounced: MYOL-neer). It is a difficult word to pronounce, so you may need to listen to an audio guide or ask a native speaker for assistance.
