For some reason, I just cannot pronounce this language correctly, I like to have sounds explained to me using the Latin alphabet if I don't know what they are, I almost have the alphabet memorized I just can't verbalize them D:

And this is about... Greek?
Why not use the IPA? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Well the language is stated in the subject, yes, Modern Greek.
I just can't accent it. I have been trying for 2 days to accent the alphabet right, but I just can't get it right D: 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Nope, unless you have written it in invisible ink or, more creatively, unless it is embedded in the subject line in some hyperdimensional fashion (and if so, well done!). I believe that occasionally subject lines for new posts get reformatted and that may explain the non-specific nature of your original post (which simply indicates "Pronunciation Failure"), and hence Arekkusu's response.

I'm French-Canadian -- that by-law doesn't apply to us and even if it did, we'd disregard it anyway. But honestly, I was NOT being sarcastic. I only guessed Greek between it was the only language in the poster's list that used a non-Latin alphabet. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Now I see that Greek is tagged, but I don't think it was when I first replied. I'm
guessing my writing the word Greek brought on the tag. 1 person has voted this message useful |
