Hi All,
 
Eek - David, you don't summarize your post with how you feel it should
be pronounced.
 
I believe that since it is Latin, that I have no Latin, and that Stephen
Fry probably has loads, I should follow him in pronouncing it ASS-EE-OH
(like Steve's initial instinct). But, due to Kate (my wife) repeatedly
chastising TV presenters for mispronouncing Boadicea (it should be
BOO-DIC-A !??!), I tend to pronounce Accio as ACK-EE-OH.
 
Cheers,
 
Dumbledad.
