#best punjabi suits

[4urum-4rgentum]

Ok so a weird revelation i had is, black ppl are translated into punjabi ppl.

Ok so, i grew up with disney india as a kid in Bangladesh , where we had the disney shows, but the indian version,

Good luck charlie= best of luck nikki

Characters: pam

Suit life of zack and cody=suit life of karan and kabir

Mr. Mosby is mr. Maansingh

Thats so raven=palak pe jhalak

The entire family

The exception: Shake it up chicago=shake it up mumbai

In this one its total genderswap, neel=cece, yash=rocky, (this is the only show where the balck ppl are not translated into punjabi, the twins are punjabi here)

Etc

In of these shows, every american character who is black is punjabi in the indian version.

Ig they kinda meet the same media cliche/stereotypes. Ppl with more media literacy than me can delve into that, i dont feel educated enough to continue this ramble

okay time to be honest ive been OBSESSED with the headcanon that Iwa is Indian (specifically Punjabi but thats only because thats what I have the most experience with) BUT I have found myself compulsively pairing this headcanon with a similar headcanon which is that Oikawa comes from a very orthodox Catholic family and you'd think this would provide friction over their relationship but no. no ive given them both totally loving and accepting families

the drama is over the wedding planning.

first off, Iwa basically refuses to get engaged because the moment he does he knows whats coming down the line. his family is going to push and push and push for the big, classic indian wedding its a many day event and it is expensive as all hell and Iwa straight up doesnt want to do it but eventually Oikawa wears him down saying it cant possibly be that bad and then cut to a dinner two weeks later, where two mothers-in-law are screaming at each other over a table about fucking colours.

"They will be wearing red! Weddings are always going to be red, red with gold, that is the way we have always done it!" Iwa's mother shouts at a woman who has been her best friend for many years.

"White is the traditional colour of a wedding, if they're not going to be in black suits they should be in white!" Oikawa's mother shouts back. "My son will not be wearing red to his wedding!"

"White? White?! White is for guests!"

"The fuck did you just say?"

Could you tell me more about your take/takes on human Elita?

And do you have any ideas for Human Optimus? I'd like to hear that too 😁

ofc!! I have stuff for tfone, aligned/prime and earthspark but as of rn only aligned is the most developed followed by earthspark lol, but I'm gonna include all of them so there's gonna be quite a bit

My tfp Elita is Argentine with major face claim inspo from Anya-Taylor Joy!! (who I think would be an AMAZING elita if they do another celeb cast for her) with her name being Ariel Caballero (meaning knight/horseman)

(this art is like almost 2 years old lmao 😭) she had strawberry blonde hair and a plethora of pink suits (like 2 years ago I had a humanformers boarding school au so a lot came from that) and she's sisters with chromia and moonracer! She'd be first lady (with op being prime minister ?? president ?) and military commander, and the niece of alpha trion! her not being in tfp gave me a lot of free reign omg 😭

I do have a human OP design!!! only tfp rn tho 😭 i'm thinking of ones for tf one and genuinely earthspark reminds me of a basic ass european descent grandpa so that's basically it for es 😭

He's Greek-Persian! (tho, general Achaemenid empire descent), I can't remember the name I actually gave him but I do remember Orion was his first name (he either had pax, a greek surname or a persian one 😭)

(ref by kibbitzer for the one on the right!!!!) Also old art lmao, he wasn't developed as far as elita was but i don't think that'd be a shocker based on my account 😭 He actually has freckles now but at the time of drawing those he didn't :')

back to the regular elita programming nowjdks

My earthspark Elita is Japanese!

Bushida Aeri is her name :) Bushida meaning warrior and Aeri being from ariel. I don't have many drawings for her but there's thesee

the first one is an old design for her but I still think it fits, the second being a younger Elita so like ig when she'd be Ariel in earthspark time line and the bottom is my most recent sketch of her!! I don't have a face claim inspo for her but Elita in general (not just earthspark) has always reminded me of Irene of Red Velvet! both leaders in pink lmao

For tfone there's like nothing new at all except this art

Esita Won, she's of Indian and Chinese descent, but mostly Indian, she probably speaks Punjabi or Tamil (ik completely different areas of India 😭), she reminds me of that one desi older sister who takes no crap and is not afraid to beat your ass and also makes the best curry idk

I noticed a lot of Elita's helm designs lean into traditional east Asian hair styles and clothing so I really wanted to represent those parts of her designs and the franchise's Japanese heritage :))

(omg i didn't realise how long this would end up being 😭😭)

I was thinking about trans!Charles these past couple days, and I already have trans!Niko in the Down on My Knees series and they sort of combined with a Halloween snippet I started that is now too big to be called a snippet (and not yet done) to form this. Is it good? No idea. Will I do anything more with it? I mean, I might clean it up for AO3 at some point. Anyway. Enjoy trans Charles & trans Niko looking at old photos and reminiscing ig

Niko's gasp rings through the apartment, making Edwin jump and Charles' head turn towards the bedroom.

"What?" Crystal exclaims from the other side of the living room, "What is it? Are you okay?"

"Charles!" Niko exclaims, running back to the living, "Charles, look what I found!"

Niko brandishes a dusty, battered cardboard box in her hand: it is white, striped red, yellow and green, and stained with age and what might be a spot of mold. The mere thought of getting near it is enough to wrinkle Edwin's nose, and a look at Crystal confirms that she feels the same. Charles, however, takes one looks at the box and jumps to his feet with an excited smile. Edwin watches him run up to Niko and make a grab for the box, stopping just short of actually taking it out of Niko's hands as they fall into step towards the sofa.

"It's our old friendship box!" Charles explains as Edwin and Crystal join their respective partners to look down at the box.

"It looks like a health hazard," Edwin says when Charles holds it out towards him, hands pulling back towards his chest before he can even think about it. "Please do not make me touch it."

"Honestly this is nothing," Niko says in her usual monotone, "you should have seen the state of his backpack when he moved in with me."

"Oi!" Charles protests, one hand on the lid of the box, "don't diss the backpack! It had my life in it!"

Niko smiles and catches Charles into a tight hug, and Edwin can't help sharing a rueful smile with Crystal. Charles and Niko have been friends since they were in upper secondary, but they do not often reference that time, presumably because of the painful experiences Charles hinted at. The box, whatever it may contain, is sure to bring back bittersweet memories at best, and Edwin can't help but to brace against that even as Charles and Niko exhibit nothing but enthusiasm.

"Open it!" Niko is telling Charles when Edwin turns back to them, "I want to show them the picture!"

Charles laughs and rolls his eyes, playfully shoving his shoulder into Niko's as he pulls the box open. The smell of hairspray assaults Edwin's nose immediately, and it takes a bit of sneezing before he can look down into the box. Once he does, he's surprised to find a perfectly preserved strand of sword lily, along with a pair of cherry blossom cufflinks.

"These are from our winter formal!" Niko exclaims, voice cracking as she does. "My corsage still looks so good!"

"You kept the pictures, right?" Charles asks, smiling down at the cufflinks before turning to Thomas, who walked up to the back of the sofa without Edwin hearing. "I paid thirty quids for the set, I don't want them to end up in the bin!"

"I keep forgetting you went to a bougie school," Thomas replies. "You sure don't fucking sound like it."

"It's because they all hated him," Niko says with her usual frankness. "He actually worked back on his accent, afterwards."

"Posh is only sexy on Edwin," Charles says, scooping the cufflinks and the flower out of the box.

Edwin, his cheeks warm, leans against Charles' shoulders to peer further into the box, and finds himself looking down at a picture he would never have expected to see. To the left, a tall, black-haired boy stands straight in a deep red Punjabi suit with gold ornaments. His smile is bright, his cheeks adorned with a touch of color, his ears decorated with stick-on earrings. The is no scarf on his head, and his hair is too short to arrange in anything more elaborate than a bob, but he slipped another fire lily behind his ear and it makes him look a little like his hair is on fire.

"That was Charles' art and design project," Niko reminisces, pointing at the suit. "You started it the summer before, right?"

"Yeah," Charles agrees with a chuckle. "I had to hide it behind my wardrobe--my dad would have gone mental if he'd figured I was spending that much time and money on a fashion project."

The proclamation, unfortunately enough, sounds very much like what Edwin is starting to expect from Charles' father. He is struck, once more, with a visceral, violent sort of hatred for the man, and a deep relief that he will likely never have to meet him. The top--the kameez, as Charles names it--fit Niko beautifully, the embroidery on the sides enough to give the impression of a narrow waist. The golden thread seems solid, the wide pants, or salwar, falling elegantly around her long legs and gathering at her ankles with a lovely fold.

But while the rest of the group admires and praises Charles' work on the outfit, Edwin can't help but let his gaze glide to the second person on the left of the picture. Shorter than Niko only because she is not wearing heels, the girl is sporting a visible scrape on her cheek and a heavily lined smolder. Her cheeks are rounder, her long, tight curls gathered back into a high ponytail. She is standing straight in a deep black kimono, the outer vest that Edwin doesn't know the name of matching the color of Niko's kameez. Even then, despite the make up and the golden nose ring and chain Charles must have had to fight for, there is an undeniable sort of masculinity to the way he looks.

"We had to practice our poses," Charles whispers in Edwin's ear, as if he somehow felt where Edwin's thoughts were going. "Niko kept doing the 'ceps move."

Edwin, very familiar with Charles' propensity for tucking his hands under his upper arms in order to make his muscles more prominent, cannot help but chuckle at the image. Niko is, by far, the most delicate person he's ever been friend with, and it is hard to picture her trying to be one of the blokes.

"I knew all the bro moves!" Niko confirms happily, and demonstrates by leaning her head onto her half-closed fist and smoldering at Edwin.

She doesn't quite look uncomfortable with it so much as cheeky, like a child pantomiming an adult's attitude, as opposed to the effortless way Charles does it. Niko is playing at masculinity, but Charles genuinely enjoys it. When he adopts Niko's earlier smolder, Edwin's stomach swoops down with delicious warmth.

"I had like, zero idea how to move in a girly way," Charles snorts in response to Niko. "We had to google it and practice in the town park on the weekends."

"You would have made a really good butch lesbian," Niko says sagely, and Charles grins.

"Mate, I'd have been aces as a butch lesbian!"

"Honestly, I can see that," Crystal says from the other end of the couch. "You'd have been a complete frat bro."

"Hey, now," Charles protests, but Thomas smirks and cuts him off:

"I bet you'd have been all about muscle cars and all," he says, to which Charles looks genuinely offended.

"Oi! If there's any car nerds in this room it bloody well isn't me!"

"I keep telling you, Charles," Edwin replies without losing his calm, "there is true beauty in a well-designed vehicle."

"Look what you did!" Charles protests, turning to Thomas even as he loops an arm around Edwin's waist and hugs him to his chest. "Now he's going on about cars! How do I get my beautiful poetry nerd back?"

"Read poems about cars!" Niko suggests, apparently in earnest.

That makes Crystal and Thomas laugh, and they start improvising truly horrendous rhymes about cars, motors, and a horsepower. Charles snorts at them, but it soon turns into a blush when Edwin leans into him and whispers close to his ears:

"You and I both know you make a much better muse for the poet in me than any car ever will."

Harvey Gives Fashion Advice

< Previous Part | Next Part >

Harvey still had time before his next class, so he headed straight for his dorm. Harry's bed was topped with cardboard boxes, and Harry himself was rummaging through his wardrobe. He would evaluate individual items before deeming they were no good and tossing them behind him. "Dude, I've been gone for a few hours, are you still trying to find something to wear?" Harvey asked his room mate.

"Oh, Honey, I already picked out a casual outfit for the day" Harry replied without taking his eyes off his clothes. "That's what I wore to pick up all those boxes."

"By the way, what is all this stuff?" Harvey sat on Harry's bed and peeked inside the boxes. It was a mix of decorations, papers, and small items that looked like they could be used for games.

"Those are the supplies for tomorrow's Queer Student Union meeting. As secretary it was my job to pick them up from storage."

"So why are you changing again?"

"And repeat an outfit on the same day? Hell no. There's an executive meeting with all the Queer Student Union's leaders tonight, so I need to look my best."

"Sheesh, I'm glad I'm not a member of your gay club" Harvey sighed, "If I spent as much time on clothes as you did, I'd never get out of this dorm."

"Oh shut up" Harry said, tossing a shirt he was looking at onto his bed, "I bet I spend less time on clothes than you do styling that ridiculous pompadour" Harry ran his fingers through his own curly hair, then turned around to face his room mate, finally seeing that Harvey was wearing a patka, "Or at least, how much time you usually spend on it. That thing on your head is new. Is it some kind of fashion statement?"

"Huh?" Harvey placed his hands on top of his head, feeling cloth where he expected to feel gelled hair. "I thought I took this thing of last night. Did I tie it back on this morning?"

"What are you mumbling about?" Harry turned back to his wardrobe, "instead of making fashion statements like that, I wish you were a fashion guru. I could use some advice." Harry grabbed a pink scarf and wrapped it around his neck. He considered it for a moment before tossing it towards the bed like all the rest. This time, it landed on Harvey's head.

The scarf wrapped itself around Harvey's patka, forming a pink UK-style turban. "Wait… this is just like with Gurpreet's table cloth. Was- was that real? It is happening again!?" While Harvey was expressing a great deal of panic, the texture of his face became smoother, and his cheek bones were more pronounced. All of his hair once again darkened to a shade of black. His mustache thickened, covering his upper lip, and his beard grew to his collar in a squared off shape. To maintain this shape it was not cut, but rather well maintained. Harvey winced, expecting to bloat into a fat man like before. Instead, he grew a bit taller and slimmed into a model physique. He got that warm feeling again as his skin turned an Indian hue, a bit darker than Harvey's normal time, but a good amount lighter than previously. His features changed slightly to be more telling of a Punjabi man, but it was unmistakably Harvey's face.

Finally the rest of his clothes were altered. He was wearing a light blue silk button up with grey wool trousers and brown leather shoes. A tricolor, diagonally striped long tie appeared around his collar. A pink scarf, matching his new turban, hung from his neck, and a dark navy suit jacket topped his shoulders. Harvey looked at his arms in disbelief, his wrists were decorated with a gold watch on the left and an iron Kara bracelet on the right. "Am I imagining things again? Why is it so different this time?"

"So Harpinder" Harry started, as if Harvey hadn't said anything just now. He was holding up two shirts, one in each hand, "Which do you think would look better on me tonight?"

"What are you talking about, Harry?" Harvey realized this was just like with Gurpreet. Harvey, or Harpinder as he was now, seemed completely normal to Harry. "You never ask me for advice about clothes."

"I just didn't want to bug you with my day to day stuff" Harry admitted, a bit embarrassed "you're such a famous fashion influencer after all. I'm sure you have more important things to do." Just then Harvey got a notification on his phone, actually he was receiving several. He unlocked it and the phone opened to a photo-sharing social media app. Instead of his usual profile, he was logged into @sikhstyleguru under the name Harpinder Singh. The page looked like it was regularly updated with photos of Harvey as he appeared now, wearing a variety of fashionable suits and street wear. Scrolling down, Harvey figured this page had to have been active for a few years, which should have been impossible because he only transformed a few weeks ago. Was reality changing? Is that why no one thought his sudden changes were odd? Either way, Harvey took this as proof that he wasn't imagining things, he really had become a Sikh man.

He tapped on his most recent photo, the one he was getting notifications for. The like count was already well above three thousand and still ticking up. Comments included phrases like "waheguru" followed by praying hands emoji and "Att" with the fire emoji. "I really am a fashion influencer" Harvey said to himself.

"That's why I'm asking you, you know better than anyone" Harry said. Harvey was confident he'd be able to return to normal, as he had before. For now he decided he would play along with Harry's vision of him, as it would be useless to try and convince Harry that he was someone else. Still, Harvey's idea of a good outfit was a white tee and black jeans, hardly the wisdom that Harry was expecting. He decided he should just answer truthfully. "Honestly, Harry, I don't think either of those shirts would work." Harpinder stroked his hairy chin while thinking, "If you're going to meet with other leaders of your organization, you yourself should look like a leader. I think I can lend you something." He turned to his own wardrobe and saw that it was replaced by a pop-up closet. Due to the dorm's restricted space, it was smaller than any proper closet would be, but it still had enough rack space to hold Harprinder's many suits, with drawers at the bottom for the rest of his clothes. He picked out a deep blue dress shirt, a vibrant yellow dress tie, brown slacks, and matching black leather belt and dress shoes. Harry quickly changed and the items fit surprisingly well on him, despite belonging to someone else.

"This is awesome, I've never had a suit I liked this much" Harry was checking himself out from a few different angles.

"It's all about finding the right fit. Now you look ready for business" Harprinder grinned. Harry threw his arms up and gave Harpinder a big hug. He chuckled and hugged back, "Easy there, try not to wrinkle my shirt too much." Harpinder impressed even himself with his wisdom. Maybe this fashion influencer thing wouldn't be too hard. Once Harry had let go, apologizing for any wrinkles he might have caused, Harpinder turned back to his closet and considered his next move. He thought Harry's outfit could use a little something more to truly stand out. He grabbed two cloths from his closet. "Hold still Harry, I just need to add one last touch." Harpinder first tied the blue cloth around Harry's head into a patka. Harry did as he was told and didn't stop Harpinder, but he was still visibly uncomfortable.

"You know, Harp, these turbans look really good on you. I'm just think this is weird on a white guy like me."

"Nonsense, you just need to see it all together" Harpinder tied the yellow cloth into a morni pagg turban. Then he used a salai needle to smooth out the folds. "See? Isn't that better?"

Harry looked at himself in their dorm's mirror, turning his head to check a few different angles. "I guess so…" Harry saw his face turn a darker shade of brown and became delighted. "Yes! This vibrant yellow does go well with my skin tone. That was a good choice, Harpinder" Harry said in a Punjabi accent.

Harpinder nodded, "Now we must do something about your hair."

"But all of my hair is under my dastaar" then a short chinstrap of curly black hair grew on Harry's previously bare face.

"Obviously I meant your facial hair" Harpinder chuckled, using a wooden comb to remove the tangles in Harry's new beard.

"Ah, that is much better" Harry admired his Punjabi features in the mirror.

"I'm glad I could help" with this task complete, the pink turban on Harpinder's head unspooled and returned to being a simple pink scarf. Harpinder himself reverted to being Harvey, and his pop up closet disappeared, leaving behind Harvey's original wardrobe. The only thing that didn't turn back to normal was the now Sikh Harry. "Woah, who are you!?"

"Harvey you are so sweet. Pretending you don't recognize me because I look so much better in this suit? I'm flattered" Harry winked.

Harvey recognized that jokingly flirty attitude, "Harry, is that you?"

"It's pronounced Harri, you know that. Anyways, thank you for helping me pick out an outfit, I'll have to return the favor some time. But for now, I'm off to meet my felllow Queer Student Union leaders" Harri lifted the boxes from his bed and made his way to the door of the dorm.

"You can't leave, there's something wrong!"

"The only thing wrong here is that a cute guy like you is still only wearing a patka. Before the next Sikh Student Alliance meeting I am going to have to tie the most handsome dastar on you. See ya!" And with that, Harri blew a kiss and left the dorm.

"No, Harry, wait!" But it was too late, Harri was gone. "This is so freaky! First I'm changing, now Harry is too! Did I do that to him?" Harvey took a look at himself in the mirror. "It's got to be because of this patka I got from that Indian club. It's making me look like them!" Harvey tried to yank the black cloth from his head, but it wouldn't budge no matter how he pulled. "It's no use, the thing is tied on like some kind of magic." he sighed. "At least I can take care of you" Harvey said, looking at his short brown beard. Harvey went to his "hair care" drawer. He was pretty obsessed with maintaining a perfect pompadour, so he always kept a drawer stocked with hair scissors, razors, tweezers, an electric shaver, Combs, and his favorite gel. Opening the drawer, he discovered that most of these items were gone! In their place was a wooden comb, a salai needle, some kind of beard oil, and multiple patka cloths. "Where's all my stuff!? I thought I changed back" Harvey slammed the drawer, "I am not giving up that easy, you stupid beard"

Harvey grabbed a pair of office scissors from his study desk and went back to the mirror. They weren't the ideal tool for grooming his beard, but they would have to do. He brought the scissors close to his chin and attempted to cut, but the scissors wouldn't close. "Huh?" Harvey pulled the scissors away from his face and heard the satisfying "snip" of the scissors cutting the air, but as soon as they got close to his face, he couldn't bring himself to close his fingers together. "Are you kidding me? I can't cut my beard either!?"

It had become evidant that whatever magic had transformed Harvey twice today was also preventing him from removing his patka and hair, even in his white form. "I need to find a way to get 100% back to normal, and also prevent future transformations." Harvey thought the best way to do that was to write down everything he knew about his predicament. He grabbed his Religious Studies 372 notebook and started a list on a new page. 1. This all started when those people from the Sikh club tied this patka on my head. 2. I can't take the patka off, except to sleep and shower. Even then, I end up tying it back on without noticing. 3. When fabric touches this patka, I turn into one of those turbanned Indian guys. The table cloth and the scarf had very different results. Maybe the type of cloth matters? 4. When I transform, my personality changes a little bit and my memory gets a bit foggy. I should keep this notebook with me so I don't forget who I really am.

Harvey sighed and closed the notebook. He didn't know much yet, but this was a start. "It goes without saying I need to avoid that Sikh club, even if it does cost me a grade" Harvey checked the time on his phone "can't let my other grades slip though, my break's almost over" Harvey packed his things and marched to his next class, believing that he was temporarily safe from Punjabification.

[alatismeni-theitsa]

Kind of an Erasmian or general ancient pronunciation ask, I know iotacism is a thing, but is epsilonism a thing too? Eta(Η) was supposedly a longer eh sound earlier on, but alpha-iota (αι or ae latinized) seems to keep the eh sound even in reconstructions instead of the route the iotas seem to go. (Like Circe's delightful little island that even Greeks probably have some trouble spelling I imagine :P)

"Αιαία" is a little confusing to the eye but then you get used to it and just read it as "Eea" 😁

Epsilonism is a thing sometimes but not in αι . Sometimes "η" and "ει" become "ε" in Greek. I've seen a tomb of a Χαρίκλεια having her name written as Χαρίκλεα.

About αι, I am sure academic books and papers can explain this better than I, but I'll do my best in a Tumblr ask 😁 I think αι almost always had an "eh" sound. We know that in the Roman years, it was pronounced "eh", due to a graffiti spelling mistake. I also think that it was pronounced "eh" long before that. I base this opinion on a few hints, based on sister languages of Greek, and on the philosophy of Greek.

Hindi:

ai also sounds like "eh" in Hindi. As an example, consider the common word "hai" ( "to be", singular, and for objects). Hai (है) is composed of two letters from the Devanagari script:

ह (ha) - A consonant. ै (ai) - A vowel sign (matra) that modifies the pronunciation of "ह" to "hai." The latter creates the vowel sound "ɛ" (like the "e" in "bed"). The word is pronounced as /hɛ/ .

Persian:

In Greek "kid/young man" is παις (pronounced "pes") for at least two thousand years. In Persian "kid/young man" is "pesar". From older "pusar"⁠, similar to other Asian languages:

Sanskrit: Putra

Punjabi: Puttar

Prakrit: Pusa

Odia: Pua

Pali: Puta

Given that history and connection, I don't see why the Greek pais should not follow suit and have one vowel sound (eh) instead of two (a-eeh).

The philosophy of the Greek language:

Like Japanese today, the first forms of Greek (like Mycenean) were syllabic in nature, meaning that the ideal word structure was vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant etc. See this post for more: Mycenaean Greek (and examples of lexical evolution to Modern Greek)

This philosophy continued in all later forms of Greek, evident by the meter of ancient texts and the "cuts" of vowels when the next word also begins with a vowel, to make it sound better. Greek always wants to avoid the phenomenon of "hasmodia" ("hiatus"), aka, to have too many vowels together. "Too many" in our case is 2 or more vowels.

When we have more than one consonant we pronounce them harshly as one (nt = d , mp = b) and don't stay long at the consonants. A Hindi speaker will stay a little longer on t and r if those vowels are seen together, but a Greek speaker will pronounce "tr" as fast as possible, trying to keep the vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant sound that you may be familiar with from Japanese.

Look at the cuts in the first lines of the Odyssey:

here you see

"δ' ανθρώπ��ν" instead of "δε ανθρώπων"

"δ' ο γ' εν" instead of "δε ο γη εν"

"άλλ' ουδ' ως" instead of "αλλά ουδε ως"

The position of the stress marks

In Greek, it simply doesn't sound nice to have too many vowels together. So it makes sense that the ancient name of the island Αιαία is not pronounced "ayaya" (that's just a funny sound) but Eea. Yes, you still have some vowels there but they are significantly less than the alternative.

You will also notice that most words here have the standard syllabic structure (pairs of consonant-vowel sounds), something that represents the philosophy of Greek even today.

po-ly-tro-pon

an-thro-pon

ar-ny-me-nos

er-ry-sa-to

an-dra

pa-then

thy-mon

pol-lon

I also give the example of the ancient word "οικειοποιούμαι". With the Greek rules, it sounds like "ikiopiume". With the Erasmian, it sounds like "oeekeeeopoeeoumay" which is just ridiculous. I'm not saying modern pronunciation is exactly the same as the ancient one. But we have many reasons to believe that a similar logic was followed.

If a Hindi or Persian speaker wants to correct or add things here, you are welcome!
