That pronunciation is horrible. He said [di - isis] like two separate words (separated by a glottal stop!). This word is actually pronounced [diyísɪs].

Alisa, if you revisit the Forvo link, you’ll see that I recorded it correctly for you. (CocoPop)

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

You’re very welcome. Let me know if you ever need me to record a word or phrase for you on Forvo. I’m a contributor there.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

Great! And I hope you gave the other guy a thumbs down 👎🏼

Пока нет. Но как только разберусь там, я с ним разберусь)))

Can it be that Deisis/Deesis are pronounced differently?
The link doesn't work now, and it was to the former, but now I can find only the latter.
After all it's a Greek word originally.

Interestingly English wiki spells it even like Deësis

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

Both those words are pronounced like I pronounced them. I’ve never seen that transcription - it’s obviously not IPA.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 6 years ago

In older English spelling, the diaeresis was used to distinguish vowels that were written together, but pronounced distinctly, hence: deësis.
