This dictionary shows how to pronounce the names of all of the features shown in Antonín Rükl's
Atlas of the Moon (Kalmbach Books, 1996, ISBN 0-913135-17-8). The pronunciations are derived from dictionaries of proper names, interviews with bilingual Americans asked for anglicized pronunciations of family names, and from textbooks of scientific Latin.

The dictionary entries are listed in the same order as the features are arranged in the index of Rükl's book.

To view the dictionary, you should have an Adobe Acrobat Reader, which you can obtain free by clicking here.
