ewmon Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It turns out that I must research and discuss the Néel-Arrhenius equation. The only problem is, I don't know with a certainty how to pronounce the surnames Néel or Arrhenius. I can guess at the French name as NAY-el and the Swedish name as Ar-REY-nee-oos. However, they might be pronounced as nay-EL and so on. Does anyone know with some certainty how to pronounce these names. Please don't let me go blindly into the night.

Appolinaria Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 If no one responds to this in time, I would just search "Arrhenius equation" on youtube, and watch as many videos as you can. Whichever pronunciation is used most, I would also use. It seems like it's commonly pronounced "er-reen-ee-us" and "nay-EL". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonY Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I would pronounce Arrhenius as the OP suggested. However, the anglicized variation is also often used in English-speaking countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
