"Aptos" isn't English, it's a word in an indigenous language. To an ordinary English speaker it would appear to be Greek, hence why people unfamiliar with the name pronounce it as though it were a Greek word.


There are too many such words in English, and you need to memorize all this shit. Unlike any other major language.
