[Facts] Re: Maria
Dog Star, eh? I'll have to remember that name "Maira" when I need to name a little bitch. :)Speaking of which... I'm supposed to be picking up another little red miniature pinscher (male, not bitch) tomorrow. How do you pronounce that Greek word for fire -- "Pyrho" -- again? Is it "peer-oh" or "pye-roh"?The dog already has a name -- "Rollie" -- but, it'll be good to have a cooler name on hand, just in case.-- Nanaea

This side of the Aegean its pronounced PEE-roh. But I suspect PYE-roh may sound better in English ;)

I was thinking of the pronunciation of the word "pyromaniac". Yes, I think that sounds better than "pee-ro", over here.Thanks! :)-- Nanaea
