It's the way I've always pronounced it. nt

Well, you guys know it better :)I just couldn't, you know, connect the given pronunciation to the spelling of the name. In German, it's Ah-LOY-zee-oos (but the last two syllables are short). I thought that it would have to be something like Ah-LOY-shus in English, and the -WISH- confused me. But after three attempts at pronunciation it started to make more sense...So, yeah, BtN was right, of course. :)
