latin

Filed under: outside in the garden — 6/17/2005

This is something I have been needing for a long time - a guide to botanical Latin pronunciation. It even pronounces them out loud for you. I always feel like a dunce when I accent the wrong syllable or use a long a when it should be a short a.

Credit for finding it goes to Perennial Passion, another gardening blog that I have recently come across.

    I went there and bookmarked it, but I usually dont have a problem pronouncing the latin…I took 2 years of Latin in high school. Believe me when I tell you that with the teacher I had, you would NEVER forget a latin word!!! OHMIGAWD I was so afraid of her!!!
