How do you pronounce names from the book The Odyssey?

Question

Is there a site with correct pronuctiation? I need help with almost every name! Odysseus, Telemachus, Athena!!!

Answer 1

Yes, there is a site. I've used it with my students.
You'll need to look around for individual names.

try:
http://www.pantheon.org/miscellaneous/pronunciations.html

Answer 2

Odysseus: o-di-see-us (the "o" is long, the "i" is short)

Telemachus: tell-i-may-cuss (the "i" and "u" are short)

Athena: uh-theen-uh (pretty self-explanitory)

Answer 3
