All "i" are the same sound as the vowels in English words knee, key, bee
"g" is a hard "g"; not like "j"

knee-gi-ree, where "gi" sounds similar to "key" and "ree" is like "reed"
eh-bee, where "eh" is the same vowel sound as "bed"

why, going to a sushi place? i can't imagine any other reason you'd suddenly want to know how to pronounce the words for shrimp (ebi) and nigiri sushi.
