How else could you pronounce it?
How else could you pronounce it?
The first three letters could be "Rice" or "Rise" instead of "Riss".
I suppose you could have a soft "C" - "risch" - but that's a stretch and reminds me of Sean Connery.
Never underestimate the power of people to put weird sounds to letters. I used to do a lot of network stuff and somebody once pronounced MPLS (which you very much need to spell out) as "mipples" and it scarred me for life.
What is obvious to you and I is not always obvious to everyone else
