A brainless title for a brainless question:
How do English native speakers pronounce the latin words "Hosanna in excelsis" in said carol?
- ek-sel-sis
- ex-sel-sis
- ex-tsel-sis (german)
- egg-shell-sees (italian)
And while I'm at it: Is there someone who could post the traditional French pronounciation of Latin (as still used today in Belgium AFAIK)? I do not mean the Italian pronounciation (which is mostly used in France today) or the "modern philologist" pronounciation "Kesar and ****ro are going to the Kirkus..."
