Siri
I know that conversation predates me by years, but if you read all those posts in order, from the original to the first response, then second, etc, I believe Pavlos was saying emphasis on the second syllable of Nephele, not Circe. He was responding not to his own response, but to blackapple's comment, an earlier response, about Nephele. He had already clearly stated that Circe is KEERkee. If I'm wrong we can always ask the Anagram King himself.

Hm . . .
Actually, looking at the posts I think you're right - and I do remember Pavlos telling us how to pronounce and emphasise Nephele correctly.
I suppose it doesn't really matter since Siri says she can't hear emphasis anyway.

Oops lol . . .
I should email UWA, they all have it wrong! *slaps lecturers* Although perhaps they use an Anglicised emphasis. *shrugs*
