Hi guys,

Apologies if this has already been covered but its something that has bugged me for years and wanted to know if any of you know the proper pronunciation of Taita

In my mind when reading I read it as Tay-ee-ta

Does anyone know if this is right or what it's ment to be or how u read it

Thanks in advance :)

MY own personal inner voice pronounces it "tie-tah", although I think it's probably intended to sound as "tay-tah".
