Me Me Me

Question: How is the Annuna PSP "Me" pronounced - "mee", "may", or "meh"?

We don't know for absolute certain, thanks to the Sumerian language being dead for lo these many millennia, but most scholars use either "meh" (the most popular among mythological studies) or "may" (usually by linguists who point to later developments in Akkadian and other related languages). It's never "mee".

We tend to say "may", but that's just personal preference.
