Then you came to the right place! You have an argument if your talking about Americans i guess, but in a large majority of the world it is pronounced Zed not Zee. "I say Zed because in Australian and we speak the Kings English, also known as British English or English English. There are some fluky ones like M, but nothing as big as the disparity between how the letter Zee is pronounced in words and how it is said. For example - C: cinnamon, cest, cesspool. I've done a quick mental run-through of the alphabet, and for every other letter there's a equal pronunciation of letter in word. You don't say Zed-bra, for example, you say Zee-bra. But I don't know of any instance in a word in the English language where you would pronounce the letter Z as Zed. I understand the historical reason for pronouncing it "Zed" - it comes from the Greek, et cetera. Just wondering why for me there's such a large difference between the British pronunciation of the letter and the way it's implemented in words that it seems a little said: " I hate to be one of those people that starts a million threads a day, but I'm wondering what you guyzes think about the letter Z, correctly pronounced Zee. This wasn't meant as an attack on anybody or their culture, by the way. ![]() Can't find any evidence pertaining to that though so I think that might be fabricated. Never heard of the Nissan 350 Zed, although, again, I've heard from some people that that's how the Japanese intended it to be said. I've heard everyone refer to it as the 350 Zee, too (for the Nissan 350Z, of course). Needless to say, he learned from his mistake. I remember a British friend who once said Dragon Ball Zed. Only Kiefer Sutherland says noo-kyoo-lar (if you watch 24, you'll know that for some reason he went from saying noo-klee-er in season 2 through to 5, and then he started saying noo-kyoo-lar). Noo-klee-er is what most people say, and is accepted as the correct pronunciation. :) I've never heard anybody say noo-clear. ![]()
