Do you know Shimura ken? He is one of the most popular comedians in Japan for more than two decades. I would watch his shows when I was a kid. I found this video starring Shimura Ken on Youtube.
Between 8 and 13 seconds of the video, the woman in her kimono says, "Anta! Anta, ikanaide!"
Anta is an interjection, meaning "you." It's an informal word.
Anta = あんた
Ikanaide means, "Don't go!" or "Don't leave me!"
Ikanaide = いかないで = 行かないで
His comedy is kind of stupid, but still funny. Hope you are not eating something right now.

regz January 24, 2008 10:01 PM PST I was able to watch some of Shimura-san's shows on DVD. They were those of him and the Drifters. Although I'm not very good in speaking Nihongo, I still find him very funny. :)
