Well to me NITCH should be spelled NITCH not NICHE. I call it NEESH, so there. Es at the end of words are typically silent and soften the consonants that come before them, but WTF do I know.Comment

Neesh thank you. I'm sticking to it.Comment

Exactly. It's like the words, capiche or cache. They're not pronounced capitch and catch.Originally posted by GatorB
