Pronunciation edit
- IPA(key): [box] (phonetic respelling: бох)

- In the nominative singular, the word is usually pronounced /box/ due to Church Slavonic influence. The regular pronunciation /bok/ is used only rarely (mostly for pagan deities) and is not recommended. In all other case forms, the regular /ɡ/ is now more common, though /ɣ/ was formerly used.
