Well, since it is the Latin name for Paris, I would defer to our French members.

Well, since it is the Latin name for Paris, I would defer to our French members. I'm from Italy and I studied LAtin at school. I think "LOOT-eh-shee-ah" is wrong due to the "H" in "shee". I think the best aproximation in your proposals is "loo-TET'-see-ah ", as the second T must be read as a Z; I mean, "Lutetia" would be "Lutezia" in Italian. Unfortunately looks like you have no "Z" sound in English, so you need to "aproximate" it by "ts", just as you like when saying "grazie" (="thanks"). |
