    There's no point in learning how to pronounce the names correctly. Nobody else does. It's supposed to follow the rules of the latin language and last time I looked, there were no native speakers. Not only that, there have been half a dozen latins with slightly different rules during the last two thousand years. Nevertheless, my first argument is the one I think is the strongest; Nobody else pronounces latin correctly. Just pronounce them in a way that's easy to understand.

    ps. the A-sound in radix should probably be the same as in "arse". The origin of the name doesn't matter, it's supposed to be pronounced "in latin".
