How do you guys pronounce these two words?
Patrician
Plebeian
I've heard patrician pronounced Puh TRISH-IN and Puh TREE SHIN
I've heard plebeian pronounced PLEHH BEE IN and PLEBIAN
Can some english major or patrician direct me to the proper pronunciation?

The first Patrician is correct, by english pronunciation standards
Plebian is pronounced "plee-bee-an", but people here use "pleb" as opposed to the more common "plebe" shortening.
Pah-trysh-en
Plea-be-in
Is how it sounds to me.

Strange, people use patrician a lot but I've never heard plebeian outside 4chan.

Puh-TRI-kian and Pleh-BEH-ian is the only correkt answer. But you anglos can't even pronounce latin properly, so why bother?
>>7828024
HUH? This can't be right
>>7828010
that's because people are careful not to offend one another irl
pleb = pl-ee-p
>>7828570
except thats wrong. pleb is pronounced "pl-e-b"
>>7828024
Pah! You pleb
It is pronounced Purtrurcyurn and Pleböian
Bloody double-fake anglos
>>7828589

How's fucking your sister, Norfolk?
>>7828593
/lit/ is really easy to bait with the shittiest trolling
>>7828595
Oh, sorry, *Suffolk. Norfolk has a well developed enough sense of humour to say 'Traditional.' Look at you, though, typing with almost full sentences. The village must be proud, or think you're a witch, whichever.
