Re: Help with pronunciation of Thais
in reply to a message by katia
The name ha two syllable, and the last one is accented. "Th" is pronounced as in "think" (not as in "the"), so Thais is pronounced:
Tha-EES (*not* Thay-EES). Of course I'm refering to the way its pronounced in Greece. Outside Greece, anything goes :)

Hi, I was looking for the meaning of the name "Thais" for it is also my name... im a 19 yr old male, and i am dominican... i have found out that its greek, and the fact that im latino often makes me wonder what drug my dad was on when he picked out that name for me. anyway, im unsure if its a male or female name or unisex, many people tell me its a girls name...
