Hi Art and Conchlers,

the only problem is that English and Americans speaks Latin with an English ore
American accent. The e in Latin you should not pronunce as an i, the i not as an
ei, the u not as an a like hat, the a not as ae, eg. If you follows this you are perfect
in Latin. So once I heard a word pronunced as

Zeiaeseireidae and I didn't know what he ment. the Z like the article the.

with best shelling regards
Helmut from Innsbruck,
