[Opinions] Re: Chlorida
in reply to a message by erb816
I guess it depends on how you pronounce it: Chlorida could be either "KLOR-id-uh" or “klor-IHD-uh".
I know Chlorida doesn’t exist, but it was just a random thought - since Ancient Greek names that end in "-is" seem to always change to "-ida" when they’re used as modern Greek names. You can see this with Elpis and Elpida (a very common Greek name), Phyllis and Phyllida, Iris and Irida, etc.
I assumed the same might be true with Chloris and the hypothetical Chlorida.
