Pronounciation of CRSI
Pronounciation of CRSI
(OP)
I understand how trivial this is. For CRSI, I say "Chris-E". My coworker says "Crease-E". Is there a consensus on how to say this non-word?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: Pronounciation of CRSI
you don't say AISC ayeeysssckkkk....
RE: Pronounciation of CRSI
Are you referring to the Cryptology Research Society of India, or perhaps a Combat Readiness Special Inspection, or maybe Space Shuttle tiles (Ceramic Reusable Surface Insulation)?
If it's the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute by chance, I'd be inclined to say it like my daughter's name (Chrissie) -- but I'd make sure everyone in earshot knew what I was talking about first...
Good on ya!

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

I say "C-R-S-I."
I know--the way I say it is four syllables, as opposed to two. But at least I don't have to say, "Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute!"

It is C-R-S-I from now on.
BA - I think you know how I spell it - incorrectly! At least I used to.

You made me laugh. From now on I will be calling it the "croissant manual."

I hate to admit it, but I was laughing when I typed that.
If you use a French accent and pronunciation, it tends to sound even a bit more funny.

There are a lot other publications/organizations where the acronym is actually pronounced out instead of saying each letter: PETA, BOCA, CABO, ASHRE, MENSA, EIFS, etc.
Here's another one, EIFS: -> is it EYE-fuss, or EEE-fuss?

I listened to that track and I am in tears laughing.
Maybe its been a long week already, but it is cracking me up.
