How was "chaos" pronounced by Romans and by Greeks before that?
Before Ovid?
During and before.
I'm not sure I understood your question. I can copy
and paste from the Web some piece of information about old words and
concepts related to 'chaos', but my skills on 'pronunciation' are next
to zero.
I'm interested only in the pronunciation. If you don't know, it would
be nice if someone else would respond.
