Re: proper pronunciation of "mecanum"

I've always wondered, too.
http://translate.google.com/#en/es/mecanum
says it like MEK-un-um.
I've always say "me C an-num," (Somewhere between one and two, with the C enunciated clearly in the first syllable, but the end syllable just being um) and I will continue to pronounce it that way regardless of what is deemed correct.
