Ok, I know Crowley but how to pronounce Thoth? I don't think I've ever heard it spoken aloud by anyone besides myself.
Ross G Caldwell
The standard pronunciation among Egyptologists and classicists is "tote" (as in "tote bag"). If you want to be pedantic, you aspirate the first T ever so slightly.
The spelling "Thoth" in English is unfortunate, and most people pronounce it "thawth".
But it is what it is.

I didn't know.
How about Ra is is prnouced Rah, Ray or Re? Wikipedia says more correctly Re', but more correctly by who?
It's really hard on a forum. My pronunciation sucks anyway, but to never hear the words. . . I've been wondering what I sould do about that.

Thanks, Ross 
Nice to see you in here. I say it "correctly" according to your information, but it sounds ridiculous.

Should we not be looking at a Coptic pronunciation? An Ancient Egyptian would not have pronounced it anything like that, it would have been closer to Djehuti. (filling in the vowels)
