PART TWO
As noted before, there is a lot of room for debate in those areas where Dee's notes are inconclusive or contradictory. This guide is my own interpretation (and occasionally, I admit, extrapolation) of Dee's pronunciation. Another, that of Donald Laycock, is in the Appendix to this paper. It is my opinion that often the differences between these variations are more of emphasis rather than any fundamental discord: between "ee" and "ih" for instance.
In the version of the Calls that follows, the first line is that of the Calls as printed in Causabon (except where noted), the second and third are my phonetic version with possible variations.
PRONUNCIATION KEY
A - as in "father", except "ag" rhymes with "nag"
C - as k before a, o, u (some exceptions)
- as s before i, e (some exceptions)
E - stressed: as in "obey"
- unstressed: as in "beg" (some exceptions)
G - as (hard) g before a, o, u
- usually as j before i, e, and word-final, occasionally in other places, some exceptions
H - usually as h, except in combinations (ch, ph, sh, th); either silent or slightly aspirated in certain locations (eg: Comselh). This last does not apply to the phonetic notation that follows: duh-loo-gah (dluga) does not end with an aspirated sound.
I - stressed: as in "machine"
- unstressed: as in "pill"
I,J - as y or jh ("ge" as in "garage") in initial position and before a vowel
O - stressed: as in "go"
- unstressed: as in "go" or as in "pot", especially in -och- (rhymes with "botch")
Q,QU - as "kuh", or "kwuh" (as in "quick")
U - usually as in "rule", but occasionally as in "mug"
- in initial position may be pronounced as "yew"
X - as in "fox"
Y - usually as under key for I and I,J
Z - as in "zoo"; in a very few words, as zod
CH - as k in most positions, but -"och" rhymes with "botch"
PH - as f
SH - as sh
TH - as th
Double vowels should be pronounced only partly separately, with an elided pause between them: QAA becomes Kuh-ah-ah, with only the barest hesitation.

APPENDIX
AURUM SOLIS PRONUNCIATION KEY
(from "Mysteria Magica" pg 416)
A as the first vowel sound in "father"
E as the vowel sound in "say"
I as the vowel sound in "meet"
O as the vowel sound in "hold"
U as the vowel sound in "food"
a as the vowel sound in "add"
e as the vowel sound in "yet"
i as the vowel sound in "sit"
o as the vowel sound in "hot"
u as the vowel sound in "foot"
^ represents the neutral vowel, as the first vowel sound in "parade," or the second vowel sound in "column."
Consonants are given their normal values (G invariably represents the hard sound of that letter, as in "gold."
# represents the guttural, pronounced as the "ch" in German (Woche, suchen).
As a general rule, allowing for varied inflexions of the voice in the flow of magical utterance, all the syllables in an Enochian word should be given equal weight. It will be noted that hyphens are frequently inserted in words. These only emphasise the need to give full value to a vowel, or to a syllable, and do not call for a real break in the utterance.
