I think that it would be hard to know the excact pronunciaton of the
ancient greek there is nt any conversation recorded so it is impossible to
have an answer.
But we dont have to go so far away and we dont need to.
If the question is how is the pronunciation in greek, there is one
language, one pronunciation.
