How to say FICO???

Anonymous — Thu, 28 Jun 2007 15:09:20 GMT

A little off topic, and maybe a little silly but I was wondering.

Can anyone tell me the correct pronounciation of FICO? I write it all the time and realized I have no idea how to say it.

Is it FICO as in F-ee-co or FICO as in F-eye-co??

See and just looking at the word, I think F-ee-co.

I guess it's a po-tay-to/po-tah-to or to-may-to/to-mah-to type thing.

Ahhhhh!! There's another one, I didn't even think to go there. But a very valid option. So here we go:

Is it:

F-ee-co

F-eye-co

F-ick-o

?????

What's the saying, "there are no stupid questions, just stupid....", nevermind.

I've always heard it F-eye-co. But, perhaps like some parts of the country call coke, soda, or pop, you can get away with saying f-ee-co. But, I will laugh and point at you if you do.

LOL!! Good one! Especially the "ick" part, cause I said something along those lines when I say my score.

You'd really laugh at me for saying f-ee-co? I'm hurt, I can't help it if my Caribbean heritage affects my pronounciation of words.

P.S. I wouldn't really be hurt

I would have thought it to be a stupid question myself.....so I am glad someone stupid like me ask it. he-he...lol

I have been calling it my f-ee-co

Thanks to Tuscani-now all of us who have been wondering, but not admitting it knows the answer.

Don't feel bad. People mispronounce it quite frequently.

When you take into consideration what the "I" stands for, there is one, and only one, way to say it:

Isaac

Hehe.. if you want to pronounce Isaac as Eesac, go right ahead.

I most certainly am not stupid!!!! Well, not all the time. LOL. I'm just known for saying out loud what other people think, but won't say.

Ah well, now we know!
