How do I pronounce ae in Latin?

Answer 1

In Latin, the combination "ae" is pronounced as a diphthong, which means the two vowels are pronounced together as one sound. The pronunciation of "ae" is similar to the English word "eye" or the Latin word "caelum" (sky). It is important to note that Latin pronunciation may vary slightly depending on the specific time period or regional accent being used.

Answer 2

Seeing as Latin is no longer a spoken language, there is no way to be entirely sure how the ancient Romans pronounced it. However, I have been taught to pronounce ae as a long a, i.e. puellae would be poo-ell-ay.
