Something we've noticed during trips abroad, is that Swedish-latin is
completely different to English-latin. For instance we pronounce
Kniphofia as "k-nip-hofe-ia",
and it took a while before we understood that the "knife-oaf-ia"
our South african
friends were talking about, was the same plant!
Just an observation, I have no idea which is correct.
