  • Knockia. Never, ever, ever Knowkia.

    Otherwise you might as well give up and join those who talk about “dahta” and “bayta” (for beta) etc!

    Interestingly, this guy’s running a poll on the same question

  • Here in the States, it’s “No-key-ah” and we always think it sounds put on to say “mo-buy-il” it’s pronounced “mo-bill”

    But we understand how our cousins across the pond are linguistically/grammatically challenged. ;)
