And, do you pronounce it dee-ah or die-ah with first or second syllable
accented?
I have always assumed that it is pronounced Die-Ah because it is short for
Diagram (there is also an Irish word Dia meaning god which is pronounced
Dee-ah so that pronunciation would be particularly confusing for me).
:-)
I'm doing the opposite: dee-ah (in English) or dya (as in "nya!") in
French. Anyway, who cares? (except perhaps for what Alex Larsson does).
We ought to have getaudio ;-)
