In Japanese, "speed of light" is pronounced as "kōsoku" (光速). Here’s how you can break it down:
- 光 (kō) means "light."
- 速 (soku) means "speed."
So, the pronunciation would be:
kō-soku
If you’re looking for a more detailed breakdown, it would be:
- 光 (kō) is pronounced like the "co" in "cope".
- 速 (soku) is pronounced like "so-ku" where "so" rhymes with "so" in "sofa" and "ku" rhymes with "coo".
Combining them, you get "kō-soku" (こうそく).
