The Greek letter “n” in Greek is actually called more something like “nee” and not how I understand English speakers pronounce it “nu” (“new”). Same with “m” that is pronounced as “mee”. I assume this is because ancient Greeks spell the phonetic version of the letter as “νῦ”. The second of those letters is “υ” (upsilon) which in Greek sounds like “e” when put after a consonant. WHO should have used Chinese characters, would have been more fun.
