In the phrase of Quintus Horatius Flaccus Carpe diem How 'diem' is pronounced?
Dee-emm. Dee-yem.The historically accurate pronunciation of ancient languages is problematical. In the case of the Latin diem, for example, most scholars say dee-yem, but the evidence of Romance languages does not support this pronunciation. The word dies is connected with the name Juppiter (Dyauspita in Sanskrit), which shows palatalization of the d from the earliest period. In poetry the word might have been pronounced dee-yem, but in conversation it is far more likely that Horace said something like d'yem or even jem.
