I'm pretty sure it's bay-tuh it's like a soft t sound that when I listen to myself actually sounds like a d almost.

My physics recitation professor last year was from New Zealand and he'd say things like

beta: "BEE-teh"
theta: "THEE-teh"
omega: "OH-mih-guh"

and stuff.

So I can totally understand where Plexa is coming from

In ancient greek it's pronounced Bèh-tah (like pholon said the 'è' in v'e'getable. I think Bay-tah is correct english though.

I would seriously LOL so loud if someone I was talking to said 'bee-ta'... its just so random and incorrect that I wouldnt be able to control myself.

No offense to anyone who says it that way, I just find it highly amusing.
