Just asking.
How is the amur tiger's scientific name prounounced?
Panthera tigris altaica - "pan-THEER-a TIE-griss al-TIE-ka". To be honest, though, it doesn't really matter how you pronounce it, people will know what animal you mean. Even among zoologists and other authorities, some will pronounce scientific names differently to others.
Reply:Well, I don't know if you're referring to the Siberian Tiger(Panthera Tigris), or the Amur Leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis.)
Reply:since latin is a dead language, a think you pronounce their words with your native language sounds. panthera tigris sounds like panther uh and tiger iss for example.
