Cs, Ks, Ss, and Us, Vs

[Centurio Nixalsverdrus]

When, approximately, did the Latin ae change in pronunciation from the "aye"-sound (in e.g. caetrati, kai-trah-tee) to "ee" (in e.g. encyclopaedia; um, paedophile)?

Do you assume English pronounciation of Latin would represent any Latin pronounciation of Latin?

If you don't, then your answer is "since the Engish started to think encyclopaedia was an English word."

If you don't, then your answer is "since the Engish started to think encyclopaedia was an English word."

Let's face it, it isn't even a latin word either. What with the the Y and the Paed part, it screams Greek. More likely it's a latinized Greek word. -M
