DaveRo How we know how the ancients pronounced Latin - to my intense irritation, since I love "church Latin" pronunciation (rejeena chaylie rather than regh-eyna koylie) - because a bunch of anal retentive academics scoured through ancient texts to find rhymes, and even found complaints about wrong pronunciations. So the British pronunciation is more accurate in relation to how the ancients spoke than the French or Italian pronunciation.
