Default Geography

My knob neighbour asked me where I had been in the world and when I said Tunisia, pronounced Chew-Nissea, he said he did not know where that is. A moment later he said "oh, do you mean Too-knees-ya?" I replied "no, Chew-nissea". He then pondered for a while and said "Nope, I don't know where that is". Haha, it's too easy.

I think the simplest and likely most accurate pronunciation would be "Tunisia".

HTH.
