Default pronunciation of scientific Latin terms
These words (left) are from a scientific report in English, but they came to English from Latin.
Please tell me, how should I pronounce these Latin words to be understand by Americans? I tried to write phonetics for these word (right), but I am not sure, please correct me! Thank you!
