So, is it pronounced "neeshe" or "nitch"? I say the former when speaking about humans, and the latter when describing riverbeds and closets.

Do you guys pronounce or spell any words differently, based on who is listening to or reading them? This isn't a deep thought; merely a stupid question.

I have the same usage as you. Now, is the "g" in "Aspergers", hard or soft? I use the hard g in "you're a sperg" but the soft one in "sperging."

hard g because thats how the name it's derived from is pronounced in its native language (german)

Ah, "sperjing." It rolls off the tongue so much better!

I think that's the proper usage of the word.

The smattering of times I've said "Deus Ex" out loud, I've made sure to say it clearly with a hard stop between the words because it's too easy to sound like you're saying "day of sex"
