How do you pronounce...

[Rosacrux redux]

My bad... I thought some would like to actually know how the names are pronounced :)

[Craterus]

How do you pronounce Thermopylae?

I was told the right pronunciation, but I can't remember it now. It's one of two in my mind.

Θερμοπύλαι= Thermopylai in greek were you see the spirit it is the sylabel you have to tone. English ALWAYS tone the words wrong! You propably say Θερμόπυλαι. BTW αι=ε. Its used in plural in ancient πύλη=gate πύλαι=gates

[Proletariat]

Oh, now I get it.

[Craterus]

Yeah, I don't speak Greek.

Can you do that pronunciation in English e.g. (un-der-stand)

Thanks.

He's just saying that English speakers usually stress the wrong syllable. We tend to say ther - MOP - ool - eye; should be ther - mo - POOL - eye.
