Rough breathing

[huilen]

I have this doubt for a long time: how should I pronunce the rough breathing when it is before a word that is elided?

νῦν δ' ἁθρόα πάντ' ἀπέτεισε

[mwh]

The delta picks up the aspirate. Same with tau, only there the alphabet conveniently provides theta, its aspirated form. δ τ θ constitute a phonetic series; likewise β π φ and γ κ χ. English-speakers unwittingly aspirate τ π κ, and probably δ β γ too, so you may already be pronouncing it correctly (unless you're chinese, as your handle might suggest).

W.S. Allen’s Vox Graeca is a useful resource.

Whether the word αθροος is in fact aspirated is another question. Aristarchus decreed it, rightly or wrongly.

Thank you for your answer.

You are right, I put a bad example choosing a word ending in δ, because I already pronounce δ with the breathing. I have the problem with other consonants before the breathing, here goes a random example:

σοὶ ἅμ᾽ ἕψεται,

Great, I will check it.

Hehe, I'm not, it is Mapuche.
