There's a pronunciation guide at:
http://scholastic.com/harrypotter/books/pronunciation/play.htm

They say it should be "AH-see-oh."  That and some of the other
pronunciations seem a tweensy bit... odd, to me.  Since JKR obviously
derives spell words from Latin, I tend to pronounce them the Latin way.
But, to each his/her own :)

Melissa, off moderation and with her very own wand :D
