There are two ways, that I know of. I think an-tee-at-um with the accent on the third syllable is the preferred, currently. I've also heard an-tee-um an-tee-tum with the accent on the middle syllable.

Could any American help me with this easily solved problem? It is I word I have often read, but never heard spoken (not being in America).
