An honest question Anonymous Tue, Jun 10, 2008 20:54:46 No.799907 [Reply] [Original]

Is it "tay" or "teh-wee?"

>>	Anonymous Tue, Jun 10, 2008 21:05:45 No.799997 >>799985 Simple. For Cirno, there's no second vowel, so the i is short, hence "sir". For Tewi, an e proceeded by a w will in most cases take a u sound, you should recognize this from dew, few, pew, etc.
