How to pronounce "Grice" and how to pronounce thyself as a "Griceian"

Speranza

Re: Witters, McGinn notes:

"Indeed, and that is no doubt the reason Cavell pronounced it that way (as I insist on always pronouncing Italian words with strict Italian pronunciation even if it is unfamiliar to English speakers)."

"But it sounds somewhat mannered to the English ear and the name is not commonly so pronounced by English/British speakers (you should hear my pronunciation of “cognoscenti”)."

You should.
