A bit of a silly question, I know, but is it "Para-DI-sa" or "Para-DEE-sa"?

I searched the newsgroups for previous comments on this subject but came up
empty-handed.  This question has been bugging me a bit lately because I just
completed a huge project that incorporated several Paradisa sets into it.
When folks ask me where I got all the Pink and Light Green pieces ("I didn't
know they had LEGO in those colors") I've been telling them that most of the
parts came from Paradisa sets.  I usually end up pronouncing it both ways.

Does anyone know if there is correct way to say "Paradisa" and what it is?

I've often wondered about that. I suppose I tend to say "Par-a-DIE-sa"
just because it's a permutation of the word "Paradise."

And remember kids,

Technic = "Tech NICK"

Technique = "Tech NEEK"
