[b-greek] Pronunciation help...

This is loosely related to B-Greek, it concerns the Latin pronunciation
of a translated Greek word.

The NT Greek word is suneidesis. In its first occurrence in the GNT
(Acts 23:1), the Latin Vulgate translates this as conscientia, whence
our English term, "conscience." I know how the Greek word is pronunced,
but to those on this list who also know Latin, the question is, should
it be pronounced as con-ski-EN-ti-a?

Thanks for any help on this. You may reply off-list.
