Talk:Selene

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"She also had an affair with Pan..."
...== it an "affair." ...more of a fling, I mean they were dating for a while but Pan was never serious, I mean not like serious. For him it was more of an affairette... This is not mythological thinking, is it? --Wetman 10:54, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

Could someone who knows the pronunciation of Selene include the phonetics? I don't know how it's pronounced and that's why I came to this article in the first place. (And I also don't know enough Greek to infer it from the Greek transcription.) --Thibgc 08:19, 5 February 2006 (UTC) - the first 'e' as in 'wet', the next two as in 'see'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian Cox (talk • contribs) 19:02, 21 February 2006

That pronunciation (essentially, seh LEE nee) is probably the most accurate, although SEL uh nee is also widely used. And then there are the pop culture mispronunciations, such as in the Underworld films, in which they pronounce it Celine Dion, with the "Dion" silent (oh, if only she were...).

In Ancient Greek pronunciation, all the e's would have been pronounced like the e in "end", except that the etas (the second two e's in Selene) would have been held longer than the first. ThweedaTVW

[edit] Endymion as a male prostitute

We have the revision entered 13:46, 15 March 2006 by User: 81.151.251.167 to thank for this furtive vandalism. No one noticed it until today. We need to wartch this article for closely. --Wetman 06:27, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
