<div>The greek pronouncation of the word Mageia (Μαγεία) is Ma-yeé-a
. The yeé is the same when you say in english 'young' the first syllabe.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You cannot say ma - geï (gay)-a because in greek the ei=i (like
ει-ρή-νη=I-re-ne <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Irene">http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Irene</a>
)</div>
<div>Only when it has the two points over the i (εϊ) is ay (like fame)</div>

You should say "the right modern greek pronunciation" is Ma-yeé-a, in
ancient greek (whose pronunciation is presumably most world-wide
known...) the pronunciation is assuredly ma-geï-a.<br>
