How do you pronounce "Z"?
 
'cause I'm pretty sure in England it's meant to be Zed, which is how I say it. :p

Lee. 26-08-2012 02:21 PM
Zed is the proper pronunciation :)

Marc 26-08-2012 02:22 PM
I used to always call it Zed but then I was told time and time again that I should call it Zee, so now it's Zee.

Plus Zee is a sexy forum member on here

I say zee,but some family members are American so I guess that is where it comes from.
