The website: http://wordsmith.org/anagram/index.html\nmight help you unscramble the letters. I tried it but must have missed the answer. I think the first two words might be "You salt..." \n\nIt would really help if you had put the number of words. and number of letters in them.\n\nI'll keep trying.

The question was how SHOULD it be pronounced. I say aluminium - because I am British.

Yes, it is pronounced "toom" - the "b" is silent and the "o" is long.  It's kind of along the same lines that we pronounce through "thru" and the "ough" sounds silent...

zberryfunk does a good job of explaining that way sounds in a word are naturally changed to ease pronunciation.  And some of the things he mentions may at least partly explain how we came to say "Wensday".\n\nBUT  that doesn't entirely explain the spelling.    Nor even the pronunciation.   In fact, the written records show that it was all a bit messier than that.  Apparently the pronunciation varied through the centuries and from one dialect to another.  (And to this day there are some dialects in which the 'd' can still be heard.   Some of this is documented in the Oxford English Dictionary.) \n\nA couple of  obervations and suggestions:\n\n1)  SPELLING\nWe retained the spelling with 'd' either because dialects that pronounced it were dominant (or at least 'won out' on this point) OR from the desire of teachers and grammarians to preserve some of the ROOT form of the word ("Wodens-die" and the like) even when it was no longer pronounced (something scholarly sorts have OFTEN done, at times even inserting unpronounced letters "back" into words they believed had come from a particular root).  OR maybe is was some of each.\n\nBut though the "d" won in the SPELLING fight,  "wensday" won the PRONUNCIATION battle.\n\n2) PRONUNCIATION\n At least one of the written forms listed in the OED is wendesdei (from ca. 1275).   This inversion of letters (called "metathesis") to simplify the pronounciation is another common occurrence in spoken language.  Compare the word "comfortable" which is widely pronounced as "comfterbl" or even [losing the r entirely"comtubl"].     \n\nNotice that these sorts of changes -- loss of middle sounds, esp. vowels (called "syncope" or "elision") and metathesis -- are very common  in the UN-accented syllables of longer words.\n\nAt any rate, a pronuciation "Wendesday" > "Wendsday" is very easy to understand.  And note that if you can scarcely hear a difference between "wends" and "wens".  That's because the d an z-sounding s are both voiced AND pronounced at the same point in the mouth.  [Cf. how "scents" and "sense" sound the same, despite the T in the first.]
