Antithesis sounds close to Anti thesis in English (As opposed to American English)



In Australian English, it's "ann-tith-iss-iss" versus "ann-tee thee-sis"; I imagined British English would have been the same. Interesting to learn.


I'm British and I pronounce it "ann-tith-iss-iss"


There's much more stress on the first e in thesis than there is in antithesis.
