Greetings,
over here we pronounce Macedonia with a 'D' but now I discover that Delta is pronounced 'th'.....(which I thought was Theta :? ) I remember when in Greece 'Salonika was pronounced differently along with others (places in Spain like Valencia too)
A realisation that Thessalonika probably comes from 'Thessaly' has just hit me too....lol
regards
Arthes

The enemy is less likely to get wind of an advance of cavalry, if the orders for march were passed from mouth to mouth rather than announced by voice of herald, or public notice. Xenophon
