Audio for Classical Latin pronunciation[edit]
I don't know what this audio clip is, but it's not the classical pronunciation, and it's certainly not /ˈmi.ser/ . It sounds more like /'mi.siɹ/ to me, so I'm going to go ahead and remove it. 128.135.100.109 18:38, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
- Well, the trouble is, so few audio recordings have survived from the classical period. SemperBlotto (talk) 21:28, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
The second audio clip makes no sense, the speaker is clearly saying "meetheer." I have no idea why "classical" is used to describe it, especially as the first clip is in *Classical* Latin. S is not pronounced like TH in any form of Latin, and the second E should not be pronounced as an English long E (eg as in heel, meet, etc). Mpaniello (talk) 05:47, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

The second definition is completely nonsensical.
- I took a stab at it--there isn't much to be found on this sense of the word, but hopefully that helps at least clear up the language. SanctMinimalicen (talk) 20:34, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
