A pronunciation guide is mandatory when naming new
genera or species of bacteria.  It's a great idea, I think.

Only if the authors actually know the languages they've used. Otherwise everyone who does will hate them for ever and evermore.

Nearly all pronunciation guides I've seen so far have a strong English accent :o)
