If it was Spanish, the i would be pronounced more like how we pronounce an e - like so:

teel-day

"Tee" has a hard "t" sound which wouldn't be present in the Spanish pronunciation, sort of a "t(h)ee" would be proper. Anyway, in Spanish "Til" is phonetically correct. "Day" would be pronounced like "die" (as in "ay caramba"), so it would be "dey."

Christ. This is inane even by ATT standards.
