Which is literally "The Without-Inflections Greek", or TWIG. The
wordlike initialisms just keep coming. :)
But the question is, how do you pronounce TAKE? I've been mentally
pronouncing EAK as the separated letters, something like [i:.ei.kei]
IML. Should TAKE be similarly pronounced T-A-K-E? Or as the English
word "take"? Or ['ta.ke]? Or even ['ta.ke:], as in George? :)
