Re: How do you pronounce Hekate/Hecate?
In its original (ahem, Greek) pronounciation, the accent is on the second syllable in the H is almost silent: eh-KAH-teeOf couse an Anglosaxon would pronounce it HECK-ah-tea
and a Francophone would go "espece de eh-ka-TEE", go figure...

Surely in the 'original' original pronounciation.....that is, the Ancient Greek one, the h would be pronounced? and the final e would be an ehhh sound?
