Pegasus Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Had a disagreement with DD14 about this just this morning and then we both had a chuckle when we looked it up and it listed both pronunciations as being correct. Made me wonder how other folks say it. Pegasus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
