P passus Guest Apr 8, 2009 #1 How do you say Prisca and Aquila? EDIT: Also, is the name Basil pronounced “BAH-sihl” or “BAY-sihl”
J JulianN Guest Apr 8, 2009 #2 Pris-ka (accent on the first syllable) A-quill-a (accent on the first syllable) Ba-sil (short a, as in apple – accent on the first syllable) The long a pronunciation is the oh-so-delicious herb.
