The word mirror comes from the Old French word, mireoir, which referred to a reflecting glass. Mireoir derives from the Latin mirari, which means, "to wonder at."
In Twi, the Akan language spoken in Ghana, the word for mirror is "anigye." The pronunciation is a-nee-jay, with the emphasis on the second syllable. The "a" at the beginning is pronounced as in "father," and the "gye" at the end is pronounced with a hard "g" sound.
