|  @ Metroguardian The letter "H" plays the role of a "πνεύμα" called "δασεία" in the case of the name of "Hellas", the same with "Helen" or "Helene".

| @gm2236 Absolutely, but I prefer ELLAS. (Does this imply that the correct pronunciation, even in greek, is ellas with a faint H (χι) in the beginning?) | |||||||||||
