    Unfortunately we know what latin sounds like (though most of hollywood has only a vague concept), and nobody speaks ancient Egyptian of Akkadian.

    From what I gather even reading either is a nightmare…

        We also have latin rhymes and even pronunciation guides from many different times, because the romans ended up teaching latin to quite a few people for uhm… less ethical reasons.

      But does it really matter if we don’t kmow what they sound like. It’s not like audience will know either.
