Would anyone like to have a go at putting on screen how they
pronouce
tinus?

V. tinus as in TEEnus would be correct in Latin pronunciation but I
bet most
say TIEnus. ;-)

I use the latter as I've never heard it pronounced any other way but
the pronunciation of the radio person was TINus (not a gardening
expert, but a rich garden owner of the pretentious type). My better
half said that I was probably wrong, but then he's like that. :-))

I think hubby was right (on this occasion),as I say TIN -us,but I am not
rich nor pretentious. Some might say common with my pronunciation:-(
