Theos-Talk Archives (July 2002 Message tt00212)

Theosophy is full of weird and wonderful terms from a
diverse range of cultures and languages. For those of
us who have not had any experience with these
cultures/languages knowing how to pronunciate words
correctly can be difficult. For example, I have a fair
idea of how Latin, French, Spanish, Italian and German
words are meant to be pronounced because I have had
experience with their cultures and languages. For
someone of European origin attempting to pronounce
Asian words can be quite difficult. You would not
believe how long it took me to pronounce "Ng" properly
(and I still don't think I can).

Is there any source of reference that is recommended
to assist a student of theosophy in proper
pronunciation?

Your help is most appreciated.

Regards,
Mic
