Hi,

in the math panel of the Dutch version of LyX 1.2.0, the button for the 
Greek characters says "gamma rho iota epsylon kappa sigma". I suppose 
it's derived from the English "gamma rho epsylon epsylon kappa", which 
is written properly, but in Dutch, it is wrong.
    The g of greek is soft and can be written as gamma, but in Dutch, the g 
of grieks is hard. There is no English equivalent, it's kind of a 
growling sound and should be written with chi. That is the Greek 
character which looks like an X.
    The sigma that is written at the end of grieks, should be the other 
sigma. It sounds exactly the same as the sigma you placed there, but in 
Greek, a sigma placed at the end of a word, should be written with the 
other sigma. This one can hardly ever be found in a mathematical 
equation, but it is in the menu under the button, just to the right of 
the sigma you used.

I did not mean to be highbrow or so, but if you put so much work in 
making this nice package, you just want it to be right and I hope this 
can help you.

Good luck!
Vinay
