Hello, everyone.. I'd like to know how to say "Accept the truth." in Latin. Thanks a lot
Oh and if there are any special character pronunciations I need to be aware of, please state them, too =)

Accipe vera.
Pronounced AK-ki-pe VAY-ra.
The two c's are like the two k's in book-keeper. Not pronounced separately, but not treated as one letter either. Less pedantic people than myself do treat them as one.
The e at the end of the first word is a short e as in the word 'red'. Again, less pedantic people than myself, which includes most users of Latin, say it to rhyme with 'hay'.
