Correct way to pronounce Skype, Adobe and Linux
Last night I brought my nephews to look for some things in PC Fair, Palm Square Centre Point KK. One of the things that caught my attention was the USB Internet phone sold by one of the booth and the sales lady mentioned it as a “sky-pee phone”.
Luckily the name ’skype’ was written there as I don’t know why a phone has anything to do with pee from the sky. When I was in my teens, the term sky-juice was widely used when ordering for cold water (not sure if it’s still being used now), so you can understand my slight and temporary misinterpretation.
She’s not the only person who refers it as sky-pee, I’ve heard my colleagues used that pronounciation too.
