For some reason the sponsor organisation I sponsor a child through accidently assigned another child to me (
stupid, stupid organisation) so yesterday I received a letter from a nine-year-old Tais in Brazil.
This is the first time I've come across Tais (
Thais) and I'm intrigued. I honestly thought it was a boy at first but it has grown on me as a girl name.
I sent an e-mail to the organisation and although I kept writing about "she" and "her" the person who replied still thought it was a boy. I guess that's the problem with
Thais. It looks and sounds masculine.
So what's your thoughts on
Thais / Tais and which spelling do you prefer?
I pronounce it tah-EES, but I don't know if that is correct. How do you say it?
