Van-ee-tass in medieval or Church Latin. Scholars are in agreement that the Romans pronounced their Vs with a W sound. In that case it would be: Wan-ee-tass.
The meaning of the word Vanitas is defined as 'empty' or 'a state of emptiness'. It does not mean 'Vanity' as deceiving as the spelling of the word may seem.
