Very nice, dude. Lovin the flava flaaav
Thanks Brokken and Mass
Hahah! You got me thinking, I've always pronounced it flah-vah, but do you say it fley-ah?
I was just talking about this with someone else. The correct latin pronunciation would be "flah-vah," but I tend to just pronounce these names as I see them. For example, I was criticized by someone for saying "jahm-bahn" when he claimed it was "jam-ban," but hey, I took Latin and that's what I base it off of. Tomayto/tomahto, right?
dunno. words used outside of latin such as names and places tend to complicate things? do you just pronounce it as you would the name, or would you latinize it?
tatei, kenneallyi, macdonaldae, jacquelineae, macfarleni, mikei, pittopangii, leonardii, attenboroughii--a whole slew of non-latin names, do we pronounce these latinized or not? i have the tendency to pronounce them as non-latin except for their suffixes.
jamban is not latin but rather indonesian, meaning "toilet"---so, personally, i would have pronounced the name the way an indonesian would. but that's just me.

I always thought the suffix "ae" was pronounced like a hard "A". I have never taken Latin courses though, so I wouldn't know.
