Yep, because it was discovered by an Swiss astronomer Paul Wild. For pronouncation I find this online dictionary very helpful (infact the best for German --> English). If you click the speaker symbol at the word in your search, you'll hear it.....

I've heard some TV reporters pronounce it like the word looks in English, not as it looks to those wacky Germans. It reminds me of something that I heard Tom Brokaw say a few years back. I'm sure you've all heard some pronounce the name of Jupiter's moon as "eye-oh" and some pronounce it as "ee-oh". Well, on that newscast, Tom Brokaw pronounced it as "ten". :-) ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
