'niche' is originally a French word meaning 'shelter'. The right way to pronounce it is 'neesh' and not 'nitch'. There is a lot of words that comes from the French language and used by English ppl unproperly. Then again same for English words integrated in the French language.Comment

I always found that strange, but then I remembered, I don't really care that much. Different strokes for different folks.
We had a teacher in middle school that said ruff...was made fun of all the timeComment

So why would you pronounce "niche" the same way?

You're kidding right?
If "rich" was spelled "riche" you would have a point.
I say "niche" like neesh. It just sounds cooler ;)Comment

And.. while on the subject - got to say, people in the US are *very* polite - least the one's I speak to

Well... Mag is not exactly a tall girl and she has to bang this sword on your shoulder, - least that's what I'd prefer to believe.
BUT if it means creeping and being subserviant - well, I'm really cheap that way

Very useful and relevent term KK - especially on GFYOriginally posted by KrisKross
Especially handy for all religous and political threadsBollocks -
(vulgar; originally ballocks) testicles; verbal rubbish (as in "you're talking bollocks"). The somewhat similar bollix is found in American English, but without the anatomical connotations or vulgar sense, meaning 'mess up'.XXX TLD's - Another mosquito to swat.Comment
