How do you pronounce molon labe?

I always thought it was Moh-lohn Lah-bay. However, it just occured to me that it could be Moh-lohn Layb. Please advice.

Please try not to laugh that hard at me though.

:uhoh: :(

ha ha, you don't speak ancient greek!

I think It's Mo-lohn Law-vay.

Somebody will probably correct me on this.

heywingnutz, whats with your signature line? How does carrying a handguntake away your right to defend your honor?

I think he means that you can't beat up common thugs if they piss you off cause you own a gun, and that's irresponsible behaviour. If you demostrate that behavior and your a gun owner you make gun owners look bad.

*ahem*

Receiving you 5 by 5, Malone.

Does anyone know the proper Greek spelling?

Molon labe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



The words "MOLON LABE" (ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ) in Greek as they are inscribed on the marble of the modern era monument at Thermopylae.
The Greek phrase Molōn labe! (Μολὼν λαβέ; approximate Classical Greek pronunciation [molɔ̀ːn labé], Modern Greek [moˈlon laˈve]), meaning "Come and take them" is a classical expression of defiance reportedly by King Leonidas in response to the Persian army's demand that the Spartans surrender their weapons at the Battle of Thermopylae. It corresponds roughly to the modern equivalent English phrase "over my dead body", "bring it on" or, most closely, "come and get it". It is an exemplary use of a laconic phrase.

Malone, I want to see somebody change their name legally to that!
