<PRE>The right in greek is this

</I>&gt;<i> The greek pronouncation of the word Mageia (&#924;&#945;&#947;&#949;&#943;&#945;) is Ma-ye&#233;-a . The 
</I>&gt;<i> ye&#233; is the same when you say in english 'young' the first syllabe.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> You cannot say ma - ge&#239; (gay)-a because in greek the ei=i (like 
</I>&gt;<i> &#949;&#953;-&#961;&#942;-&#957;&#951;=I-re-ne <A HREF="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Irene">http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Irene</A> )
</I>&gt;<i> Only when it has the two points over the i (&#949;&#970;) is ay (like fame)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> -- 
</I>&gt;<i> Dimitrios Glentadakis
</I>You should say &quot;the right modern greek pronunciation&quot; is Ma-ye&#233;-a, in 
ancient greek (whose pronunciation is presumably most world-wide 
known...)  the pronunciation is assuredly ma-ge&#239;-a.
