Molecvles nvts
How are they pronounced?
Molec-ulēs and partic-ulēs
Nah, the heroes.
They were trying to show the hero-like pronunciation applied. Think of e.g. Hercules.
It's "Herkules" in german, like you write it, so i don't know.
This petition has missing rules.
The English pronunciation of Hercules is effectively the same as the German pronuncation.
Important for the joke is that the normal pronunciation for molecules differs, even though it also ends on -cules...
Molleck-Yoo-Lees and Parr-Tick-Lees
The English pronunciation would be "her-Q-leez"
For the Greek pronunciation, if I remember what I was told, the long "E" at the end should actually be short; the "R" is mixed with an "L" sound; and the "H" is silent.
Pronounced something like "eee-lrak-aice"
Thanks!
Honestly, go with the epic version.
