[Opinions] Re: Cicero?
in reply to a message by Kit
Which Latin pronunciation? One of the Classics professors at my uni was Belgian and pronounced it CHichero, which confused us for half of his first lecture, when light started to dawn! It seems it was Church Latin ...
I use Sisero; it's been used in English for centuries. Fascinating person, wonderful writer, not a name I'd use, though I've got nothing against chickpeas.

If you look up the name, you'll find the English and Latin pronunciations.
The Latin pronunciation is: KEE-keh-ro.
