I prefer 'Roz', or if I get a blank look 'Rose' Definitely not 'Rosh', as I find (a lot) people who pronounce it 'Rosh' spell it that way in documents / memos etc.
Best Regards, Dave Coleman AIIRSM SELEX Communications Ltd. "Powell, Doug" <[email protected]> Sent by: [email protected] 11/12/2009 19:21 To EMC PSTC <[email protected]> cc Subject Friday question - RoHS All, “What is the correct way to pronounce the acronym RoHS?” This little question has plagued me for several years and every time I think I have it right, some professional comes along and says it another way. So, I thought I would ask this esteemed group of individuals. I know of several variants and there even may be more choices. 1) Those who spell out “R-o-H-S” 2) Those who say “Roe-Hoss” 3) Those who say “Rosh” 4) Those who say “Ross” What is the consensus?
