Machine of God would be "Makina Dei" (Latin has no 'ch').
Machine from God would be "Makina a Deus".

His computers are named Deux, Ex, and Makina. I *really* don't care how badly he violated the language's syntax, or how badly he spelled it.

Greek has a CH sound. Chi. Looks like the Latin/Roman X. In the Greek word Χριστός ("Christos"), it's the first letter. Chi rho iota sigma tau omicron sigma.

Yeah I was gonna say.... lol.

For example, the psychology honors society in college is called Psi Chi, as in si ki, long I's in both.

The only Greek letter I've seen a dispute on in college was Φ (Phi), as in fi (long I) or fee.

The name of "Chi" is pronounced Ki. When used in a word, Χ is pronounced Ch.

I'm talking about the 4 years of Latin and year of Italian I had.

There is a 'ch' sound, but only in Church Latin (yes, Church and Standard Latin differ in pronunciation) and in Italian, but there is never a 'c' followed by an 'h' to make a 'ch' sound.  In Italian, "ci" and "ce" are pronounced "chee" and "chay", respectively, whereas "chi" and "che" are pronounced "key" and "kay", repsectively.  Church Latin is not the same as Standard Latin, and neither have "ch" anywhere in the written form.

I think maybe "it would be in Joe's best interest" (Home Movies quote) to stop talking.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

We found out you were black.  We have met our affirmative action quota for this year already.
