How do you say book in Russian?

Russian for "book" is книга, which can be spelled as kniga, but pronounced k-NEE-gah. That is to say, the k is not silent like it is in "knee" and should be pronounced the way the French were pronouncing "Silly English kaniggets" in Monty Python and The Holy Grail.

Plural "books" is книги, pronounced k-NEE-gui (as in guilty).
