Can someone help me out and tell me how they would be pronounced?
I think I got par-teh-cleese.
Moe-leck-you-leese?
What you wrote looks right to me.
Mol-eh-cue-lees
Par-tik-lees
Testicules or Testiklees?
Testicles doesn’t have a U in it, so the second one.
Moe-leh-cleese, to make it more like Hercules = Heracles in Greek.

Consider the following
Saxophone - Persephone
Sax-oh-fo-nay
Michael Bublé - Google
Canoes - Volcanoes
This one is cursed

This reminded me I play an online game with a guy who signs in as Testicles, the Greek philosopher.
Ah yes, I for one live by the Testiclecratic Oath.
I would also like entomologists to pronounce the insect orders properly. That ‘p’? It belongs to the ‘-ter’. It’s ‘pter’, for wing. As in ‘coleo-ptera’, the ‘shield wing’, not ‘col-e-OP-tera’. Or ‘neuro-ptera’, the ‘lace-wing’, not ‘neur-OP-tera’.
We actually put the accent on a syllable THAT DOESN’T FUCKING EXIST in the Greek.
Fucking nonsense.
I learned from ESLs. Sue me.
Brain has been patched. I can’t undo this now.
Lemme ruin ‘testicles’ for ya too.
One man’s ruin is another man’s treasure
Poseidon’s naughty child, Barnacles.
I can’t see my own post!
It’s a ghost!
I can see it just fine, it says . . .
I petition that henceforth all words be pronounced in the spirit of Greek heroes
What does “let’s meet those headlines” mean?
Meet those headlines [with all the flair that they give science journalism]
Also Thermo-meter rather than ther-mom-eter would be good
One instance where the german pronounciation actually makes sense
Incontinentia Buttocks
Reminds me of the fact that Helicopter is a compound noun of helico (spiral) and pter (wing).
So you’re saying it’s pronounced helicopter, and not helicopter?
And it’s also spelled accordingly!
I love me some Buffalo chicken pters.

Uripades? Umendades?
Got my vote
