We (in The Netherlands) say “kicks” like the Brits.

How do you say "CICS"? In my experience, Americans mostly say "see-eye-see-ess"; Brits say "kicks"; Canadians are a mixture; and Italians say "cheeks" (which makes perfect sense, following Italian pronunciation rules). If your native language isn't English, how do YOU say it? This is just a curiosity question, obviously! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ----------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION: The information in this e-mail is confidential and only meant for the intended recipient.
