Thank you
definitely NEESH. No doubt in my mind.
I pronounce it "Neeshe" and I'm in the UK if that makes a difference :)
I say NITCH, but then I also say KELTIK....and I have French, English and Irish heritage - go figure. But then, the US *is* the melting pot, is it not??? Or at least it used to be before everyone became so *&^%*)!! PC about everything. SEESH! or is it SITCH????
"Nitch" is the proper U.S. English pronunciation (duno about the Brit's or Ausies hehe), NeechE (short "e" like in thE or hElp ) is the German pronunciation. Gee, there has to come a foreigner along to explain the Americans their own language. It's like my Hungarian girlfriend who was correcting my German ;).
Sure, the French pronounce it "neesh," but who really wants to follow the French?
It's neesh, if we want to pronounce it the French way, and after all, it is a French word.
NITCH - for sure...
The pronunciation is "Neesh". As you know, Niche is a French word. In French, the pronunciation is like "Neesh".
Nitch'e is correct the way I learned my English back in Germany ;)
You are German too? You are kidding, right?
I vote nitch.
Nitch
It's 'neesh'. As in 'capiche'. Not 'capitch'. And there is no accent so it is not 'neeshay'.
Jim,
Well, English first originated from England didn't it? Whether its British or American English, so I go with the rest of us in the UK and pronounce it 'neesh'.
in michigan, it is niche.
Hmm....I always pronounced it "nishay"....
