[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I pronounce it with a long E (ath-LEE-tah) for two reasons: 1. Athlete has a long E. 2. Generally, [b]a vowel followed by a single consonant then another vowel is long. [/b] If they wanted it to have a short E, they should have spelled it Athletta.[/quote] But is that usually the case when the second vowel is an "a"?
