Pronunciation

edit
  • (Classical Latin) IPA(key): /ˈba.roː/, [ˈbäroː]
  • (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /ˈba.ro/, [ˈbäːro]
  • The length of the first vowel is uncertain. Scholars generally give it as short per the Germanic and to distinguish from etymology 1. Nevertheless it does appear with a long vowel in medieval verse (e.g. in De triumphis ecclesie).
