    That's another way to put it, yes -- but not with the stress on the middle syllable. The stress needs to be on the first syllable.
PAIR i ton
    
PAIR i ton

    Yeah, I meant it's a long e sound by capitalizing the e, but I guess it can be i like in it?

Keep in mind that pronunciation of Greek in ancient times varied as much as pronunciation of English does today -- in Britain, in various parts of the US and Canada, in Australia, in India, etc.
