Re: Anais
in reply to a message by clayishtwine
I used to prn it like uh-NAYS, but now it's more like a cross between uh-NAY-iss and uh-nye-EES b/c I can't quite get the stress on the last syllable. :o( So, yes, it will probably be mispronounced (although I'm not sure about "horribly," lol). And for the record, I prn Annis & anus very differently. The a in Annis is prn like the a's in black cat (I'm not even sure how to transliterate that!) while I prn anus as AY-nus. :o)
