Re: Anais Nin

posted 2002 by Susan

I've heard it pronounced (by someone who SEEMS to know)as:

First name: Ah-nah-ees

Accent is on third syllable. The diacritical mark indicates that the "a" next to the "i" is to be pronounced separately from the "i" (not together as a diphthong, as in "rain.")

Last name: Nin rhymes with "seen." It's French.
