ArchivesA few pronounciations on a few Greek names
OK, so today, I came across a paper that had a lot of Greek and Roman goddess + god names on it, but a few of them, I thought were pronounced differently than the given pronunciation on the sheet. Can someone please tell me which way is correct for each, or something completely different? TIA!
Thalia- I thought it was THALE-ya, but the paper says thah-LIE-ah.
Euthalia- I thought it was yoo-THALE-ya, but since Thalia in the paper is pronounced that way, according to the paper, it would be something like yoo-thah-LIE-ah.
Melpomene- I thought it was mel-poh-MEE-nee, but the paper says mel-PAW-mih-nee.
So, TIA for any help! I would like the most accurate pronunciation on these!
