Oct 8, 2015 at 17:16 | comment | added | som-snytt | You asked for a pattern, implying linguistics. But pronunciation as a usage question is also interesting and clearly appropriate. As someone who learned a little Greek and also reads, I have questions like yours all the time. I usually wonder "how would or does a speaker (of English) naturalize this word" and "how would an (Oxford) academic pronounce it" respectively "(hip New World) academic". | |
