What's the official pronounce of mesos?
Hi,
I saw in some videos, different people pronounce 'mesos' differently.
Can someone add the official pronounce of mesos to wikipedia?

Sadly, I don't understand a whole lot about Mesos, but I did learn Ancient Greek in college, taught it for a couple of years, and have even translated parts of Homer's Iliad.
μέσος
The 'e' (epsilon) in 'Mesos' would be pronounced like the 'e' in the English word 'pet'. The 'o' (omicron) as in 'hot'.
But, at least to English ears, that pronunciation feels a bit stilted. So I think Rodrick's right to sound the 'o' as long, as in 'tone'.

Mesos comes from the Greek word ‘mesos’, which means ‘middle’, so I guess that would be a valid pronunciation ;).

Looks like we don't have an official pronunciation. The previous guideline
was "say it how you like it".
Also, I checked some other project like kubernetes wiki
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubernetes>, they don't have an official
pronunciation as well.

The base word (etomologically) would pronounced mees'os or maes'os) (sorry
but I don't know how to do accent grave on this keyboard). But in English
(especially American English ) there is a tendency to accent the first
syllable by default and with a "long" e from the Anglo-Saxon word formation
... 'mee-sos.
But the real issue is was this a made up jumble or a reprising of the real
word? The real word's e is, like my name's spelling undergoes a bit of
bastardization in English ... the e is actually the Greek "æ" so mæsœ or
dæmœn.
Thus in classic techie world order I have explained how a watch works when
you only desired the bloody time.
