So I would prefer to just plain KNOW the correct pronuciation from here onward.Date: DecemPhone: (910) 433-1500 ext. Hollywood can be a very mean, petty, cruel place -especially when it comes to your apearance, your style of speech, your background, and your perceived level of education- and this kind of a mistake on my part can be seen as a terrible gaff and not lightly forgiven either by the people who run the contest, or by Hollywood professionals. This may seem silly and trivial to some people, but let me assure you that in Hollywood this sort of thing is NOT silly and trivial at all. And so I am now here asking all of you fine people to enlighten me. I've made many searches over the past few weeks (a total of about 90 minutes of computer work) and came up empty. But NONE of the online dictionaries I found gave me the pronunciation. So after the call I went to the internet to try and look up the word in an online Greek dictionary to secure the correct pronunciation. I felt VERY self-conscious during the phone call when I realized he was indirectly correcting me. He prononced it like it might rhyme with "peer - dose" And during the phone call, he did NOT correct me in a DIRECT way, he simply chose to pronounce it differently than I was pronouncing it (which is a actually a subtle way of correcting someone else's mis-pronunciation). The name of the screenwriting contest is "The Kairos Prize" and "Kairos" is a Greek word that means "at the right time" or "at the ideal time." And I have been pronouncing the word "Kairos" as if it rhymes with "tie - dose." But I have only been pronouncing it that way because I ASSUMED (first time I read it) that THAT was the right way to pronounce it (it sort of looks similar to the spelling for the capital of Egypt, so that is where my justification for the pronunciation comes from).īut then I called a pro scriptwriter acquainatnce of mine in Los Angeles a few weeks ago and told him during the call that I was entering the Kairos Prize. But if you really want to know why I'm even asking, then read on. If you simply know the answer, then read no further and just kindly give me the answer. How do you pronounce the Greek word "Kairos?" I'm here because I am in the process of entering a screenwriting contest (it's a huge prize of $25,000.00 for first place, so this is one of the biggest prizes going in Hollywood) and I have a very very small picky-yoon detail that I kinda need to get the answer to. And I'm not really a student of Greek (or any language right now) I'm actually a scriptwriter (but I am NOT a member of the WGA, in case you're wondering, although I wish I was -and if I were, I'd be on the picket lines right now).
