BUG: Wrong Pronunciation Style in Bible Word Study

My pronunciation style (in the pronunciation tool) is set to Erasmian. It works correctly in the right-click menu, the pronunciation tool, and in the lemma section of Bible Word Study. It does not, however, work correctly in the "Grammatical Relationships" section of Bible Word Study.

To reproduce:

1) Open pronunciation tool, enter "ζωὴ" in the search. Select Erasmian pronuncation from the dropdown and click the word to pronounce it.

2) Navigate to Matthew 25:45 in a Greek or reverse interlinear Bible. Right click on the word "Life" or "ζωὴν", go to "Lemma", and click "Pronounce". The result should be the same.

3) Choosing the lemma again in the right-click menu, this time open Bible Word Study. Click on the audio icon in the Lemma section at the top. Again, this result should be the same. Here comes the problem.

4) Enter the word "αἰώνιος" into the Bible Word Study. Scroll down to "Grammatical Relationships". "ζωὴ" should be the first word on the list. Click the audio icon. If you're having the same problem, you'll hear the modern pronunciation instead of Erasmian.

Cheers,

Mitch

This isn't going to make you happy, but i just found a similar bug reported more than two years ago: Bug? Bible word study only gives Erasmian pronunciation.

Logos, there was also a pronunciation bug just reported at Greek pronunciation in word lists different from elsewhere in Logos.

Well that's unfortunate. I would really like to get at least an acknowledgement of these problems from someone official at Logos.

mitchellis, I tried your steps on a Windows platform and everything is all right. I do not know if that helps you with anything. Martin.

Then I guess KS4J can add this to the Parity list if he sees it.

Apologies: Logos 4.6 on Windows 7 and Mac OS X 10.6.8 have Erasmian pronunciation for me.

Interesting. I just tested again now that I've upgraded to 4.6 and I'm getting the same results as before. I'm running OS X 10.7.4, so it's possible (though unlikely, IMHO) that the issue could be exclusive to Lion.

I've seen a number of 4.6 bug reports that only seem to occur on 10.8, but not 10.6. I don't remember any 10.7 users on those threads, so it's unclear whether they're affected or not. Thus perfectly possible that this too is a bug that 10.6 users are spared.

Primarily due to a variety of Logos 4 Mac issues with OS X Lion, personally did not upgrade from Snow Leopard. Planning to upgrade to Mountain Lion later this year while keeping a Snow Leopard bootable partition.

That's what I'll have to do as well the next time I get a new computer, unless I finally find the time to do something about all my old MacWrite Pro files.
