How do you pronounce Antigua?
I'm having a disagreement with someone regarding the way one pronounces the name of this island! Which is right:
An-TE-gwa
OR
An-tee-ga?
Thanks for your help!!

Me,
I live less than 40 miles away and every time I'm there, all the locals pronounce it An-gwil-uh. All of us the surrounding islands pronounce it the same, as well. Where is Sandyfeet? She can settle this.
