Hi ukexpat, I created this article. the pronunciation guide is exactly as it is from dictionary.com - one of the cited sources, leaving it as ab might be all-right as well, but I would prefer it if it was from a source. I saw that there are 2 pronounciation guides listed so I updated it, hope they suffice. Thanks for you excellent over-all editing by the way gratias tibi ago --Theo10011 (talk) 15:59, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. The pronunciation issue may be US vs Brit. The dictionary.com (American) pronunciation stiil doesn't sound right to me and certainly not the way I learned it at school back the 70s. We were taught that it was a very short "a", as I mentioned above. I am not sure there really is way to source that. In any event no one really knows how the classical Romans pronounced it. – ukexpat (talk) 02:08, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
