Assured
I don’t quite get the ‘Innovation. Assured’ — without a dot after the ‘Assured’. I think there should be a dot after it. I feel like I’m leaning forward waiting for the next bit after saying it.
Anyway, after asking quite how you pronounce NOKEEE YAHHH (”Nokia”), more out of casual curiosity, I’d like to solicit suggestions for how you actually pronounce Acision?
At first, I read it wrong and called it ‘Aks-ishin’.
Then I read it again and noticed that ‘i’ there after the ‘c’. Ak-izzay-onnn?
I reckon that’s it?
I think Acision is pronounced like incision, except with an “A” instead of the “in”. If the “Ac” sound was meant to be short, I think it should be “Acc”, as in the words accept and accelerate. Though the presence of a soft “s” sound after the “c”s in those words is a bit off putting.
Still, I’m casting my vote with “ryhmes with incision”.
Actually, pronouncing it that way kind of makes me think “ascension” which, methinks, is the kind of word you really do want associated with your company.
