Anansi
This is a mythological African God, which is why it's not in the database. (Database tends to skip African mythology for some reason) Wikipedia article is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AnansiMy question: How do you pronounce it? My boyfriend and I are in arguing over it.

a-NAHN-see, I thinkBut I think I learnt this pronunciation from an episode Reading Rainbow in the dim mists of my early childhood, so take this with a grain of salt.

I'm not sure, but I've always heard it said like a-NAN-ci, with first a short, then a long a. I hope that answers the question.
