[edit] Pronunciation of "Burnyeat"

Can somebody please indicate precisely how this particular man chose to pronounce his family name -- its pronunciation is not obvious from its spelling. Thank you 129.94.6.28 17:50, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't know IPA but think MB pronounces it Burn-ee-at. 131.111.8.96 10:34, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

When I attended his lectures in the early 1980s, he was referred to within the Cambridge Classics faculty with the pronunciation above.
