Prepared for what?
What am I lookin at?
Gecko on a stone head?
True, cause that’s not how you pronounce axolotl
Not how that works… Things change between languages. It makes perfect sense for common English pronunciation.
Hell things change in the same language.
Language is based on common use.
Axolotl doesn’t rhyme with Aristotle?
but you just pronounced it the way I do

Axoloteles?
Pretty sure that’s Aristotle. But apparently the plural in Nahuatl is axolomeh so it doesn’t work either
Ἀριστοτλ? His name is Ἀριστοτέλης. Totélēsly different…
Haha well the English have already butchered that name with the new spelling. They can have their pronunciation
I thought it was pronounced “Socrates”
Wrong guy.
So-crates?
I threw this together in 2 minutes:
spoilers
Salamander on Anaximander
Ah-SHOW-lot on Aristotle.
Not in English it ain’t.
Yeah but the guy in that YouTube tutorial seemed like he was implying that everybody should pronounce it correctly according to its language origin 🤷🏼♀️
Sometimes when a word gets borrowed from another language, the pronunciation comes along, too. Sometimes not. Every dictionary here says we aren’t using the Nahuatl pronunciation. It isn’t a thing, no matter what some guy on YouTube is saying.
