Pronounce it like the word "satan" without the "n".

I pronounce it as "Sayta", but I also see "S(ae)TA as common too.

It depends on the language I'm speaking: as in "date" when I speak English, or as in "RAM" when I speak French or Spanish.

In my native language (the only times I would pronounce this word) I pronounce the first and second a like 'aaaah' (not sure which sign that would be).

[Drak3]

Yes.

[yolosnail]

Can there not be an option for 'it depends on what mood I'm in'?

I pick up accents really easily, so it really depends what I've been watching!

Long A. I don't mind people saying it with a short A sound.

[Mister Woof]

Don't care what the proper way to pronounce it is, I say SATA like the Sat in Saturday.

 

Also will always say GIF like g in girl

It is correct. This is how it should be said.

Horsefeathers. It should be a long A. The short A sounds pretentious, like the snobs who pronounce Cretin with a short E.

I know it is probably wrong, but I see and say it as サタ 

[TetraSky]

Seitah if I'm talking with someone in English.

Sahtah in French.

(or however you'd write that...)
