      I’m not a Greek expert, I just know what little math has taught me… 😅

      The pronunciation thing came directly from Wikipedia because I was unsure how to spell it phonetically in English and then I threw the Greek pronunciation in because that’s how it’s pronounced in German too (since I am German and was only certain about the German pronunciation): Xi (letter)

        It’s also worth noting that the “ZY” or “KSY” pronunciations might be misleading to English speakers. The “Y” in both of those is actually like the vowel in “fly”, not like in “baby”.
