    so pezHetairoi is useless. and should be pezetairoi. ( for as far as i know. but hellenes shoudl know more about this than me) btw. they have a greave on their Left leg
    Do mind that the spiritus asper adds the 'h' tone to the pronunciation of the word. In other words, when we transliterate from Greek, we must add the 'h' tone or we will not be transliterating correctly.

    And do mind that the jolly old Brit doesn't speak correct English. He not only has whackass grammatical forms (police are? wtf?), but also has allowed his English to degenerate over the years, while in America the good old form was clung onto and subsequently preserved. Never mind the pronunciation -- that's so bad I won't even dare start on the subject.
