Help[Opinions] Re: Charis, Karis or Carys?
in reply to a message by zebra_cakes
Well, in Greek Charis is actually pronounced HAH-rees which I don't find so appealing. My friend from Greece once pronounced it for me. So that would be the most authentic pronunciation for Charis.
However I also think you could pr. Charis the English way if you wanted.
Carys is KAH-ris, I think but in this case I'm not sure.
Karis could definitely be CARE-is so if that is the pr. you prefer I might go with Karis.
Cerys would also be CARE-is but doesn't look very attractive to me.
Charis I would only use with the original Greek pr. and only in Greece because in any other country it would be too confusing. I think it's kind of weird to pr. it the English way but it might work.
I like the KAH-ris pr. so Carys I prefer over Cerys and Karis.
If you want CARE-is you should go for Karis or Cerys. Personally I prefer Charis and Carys but only with their original pronunciations.
