I'm writing a library for translating latex into readable speech, and usually I rely on Larry's speakeasy to let me know how to read an equation.

Seeing as I could not find an answer for the following expression:

$$ k_{ii}\det \mathbf{K}(i|i) $$

Namely, the (i|i) part, I need to find the best way to pronounce it. Otherwie I will be pronouncing it roughly as:

Boldface Kay. Left Parentheses. Eye. Pipe. Eye. Right Parentheses.

If there is more than one context which would change its pronounciation, please provide it.

    (That's an expression, not an equation. Equations equate things with an equals sign.) – anon Nov 06 '16 at 08:01

    It seems to be an inner product (or scalar product) over some vectorial space. – Masacroso Nov 06 '16 at 09:19

    @Masacroso Text I grabbed it out of (I'm using it for examples): Let $C_{i(j)}$ be the set of graphs obtained from $G$ by attaching edge $(v_iv_j)$ to each spanning tree of $G$. Denote by $C_i=\bigcup_j C_{i(j)}$. It is obvious that the collection of Hamiltonian cycles is a subset of $C_i$. Note that the cardinality of $C_i$ is $k_{ii}\det \mathbf{K}(i|i)$. Let $\wh X=\{\hat x_1,\dots,\hat x_n\}$. – Anon Nov 06 '16 at 09:24
