a-are you okay anon?

It's pronounced "waynee weedee weekee"

'c' is pronounced as a 'k'

so Ciceo is pronounced 'Kikero'
and Cæsar is 'Kaisar'

if you say 'Sissero' or 'Seezar', you're a retarded faggot

Latin is dead, we absorbed the pronouncation into our preferred accent, thank you.

How about we purify our English instead and use Fuþark runes while we're at it.

So the consonant 'V'/'u' is pronounced as a 'w' right? How is Octavian pronounced? Latin is starting to sound like Life of Brian http://youtu.be/zPGb4STRfKw

No, it's pronounced "Elthon, eidon, enikesa"

You're the faggot almost all educated Englishmen (Newton, Johnson, etc.) from the Renaissance until the 20th century pronounced Latin that way, like this https://www.reddit.com/r/latin/comments/543p3k/traditional_english_pronunciation_of_latin/.

Besides, I think the English pronunciation has more emotional resonance to English speakers. It's almost like speaking your native language (once you know the grammar and the vocabulary well enough). Furthermore, it's not as harsh as the classical pronunciation (something the ancient Romans themselves complained about). I would much rather say Sisero than Kikero (although admittedly I would prefer Yulius Kaisar to Dzhuliuhs Seezer).

So nowhere near the ancient period?

It's not that it's that c before e, i, and y is pronounced like S just like in most of the major Romance languages as well.

Well, they were wrong.

>>1824868
In modern Italian it's 'Chicherone' and 'Chesare'.
English simply adapted to the pronuncial shifts in the western romance speaking regions.

I'd love to see more linguistics and language threads on /his/.
What language is everyone studying?

The vast majority of Latin literature was created after the fall of Rome. The Romans themselves liked writing in Greek.
