How to pronounce a greek word? in greek letters?

Hey... so basically it's for use in a story... for mystery i have translated the word "superhuman" to greek. of course, when they first encounter it, it's going to be verbally, so i need to know how to say superhuman in greek (phonetically)





this is what i got from the online translator:





蠀蟺蔚蟻维谓胃蟻蠅蟺蔚蟼





i'm not sure how accurate it is, but could someone please tell me how to pronounce that phonetically?





any help is appreciated :)|||It should be 蠀蟺蔚蟻维谓胃蟻蠅蟺慰蟼 actually.


If you know IPA, the phonetic transcription is /ipe'ran胃ropos/. 胃 is pronounced like the unvoiced english th (as in think)


Spelling it based on English phonetics would probably be ee-pehr-ANTH-ro-pohs without making a glide vowel anywhere.|||"ee-pehr-ANTH-ro-pehs."|||It's 蠀蟺蔚蟻维谓胃蟻蠅蟺慰蟼 (not 蠀蟺蔚蟻维谓胃蟻蠅蟺蔚蟼)


yperanthropos


ee-peh-RAh-nthroh-poh-sh
