How do you pronounce Kunagi?

We've just started experimenting with kunagi and already people (none with any Estonian) pronounce it differently. The g is sometimes pronounced as a hard 'G' and sometimes as a 'j'.

Is it worth putting a phonetic representation on the home page? I couldn't find anything using Google.

Thanks,
Nick

It is interesting that you say Estonian, since Kunagi was never meant to be an Estionian word. :-) We adopted the name from Esperanto as a composite of "kune", which stands for "together", and the verb "agi", which means "to act". However, the composite is ungrammatical, as far as I know. In Esperanto, the "g" sounds as in "go" (regardless of the following vowel).

I hope you enjoy using Kunagi!

That's interesting, thanks.

In Estonian, Kunagi appears to mean "eventually", or "someday", which is hardly inappropriate either.
