Hey! I remember my Greek mythology, and I thought the dog that guarded the entrance was called Cerberus! What gives?

I personally wonder about this myself. I have seen references in "The Devil's Dictionary" that claim it is Kerberos, but when I checked this myself I only found the "Cerberus" variant. I never actually heard of the "Kerberos" spelling/pronunciation until I got involved with Kerberos myself.

From: Tom Yu "Cerberus" is the Latin spelling of the Greek "Kerberos", and according to the OED is pronounced like "serberus", but that is quite at odds with the Greek, as the initial consonant is a "k". MIT Project Athena chose to use the Greek spelling and pronunciation. From: Jan Sacharuk Tom Yu is correct, Cerberus is the Latin spelling.

However, the fact that the OED says that the 'c' is pronounced as an 's' is an English affectation. In Latin, the letter 'c' is always hard. So Cerberus is pronounced 'Ker-ber-ous'.

The letter 'u' is also slightly different, making it somewhere in between 'oos' and 'ous'. From: Michael A. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
