Always "M I S".=20 Similarly, I never heard anyone say "mitt" with reference to Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Always "M I T".=20 The word NIS appears with NFS often enough for me to believe that "niss" wo= uld sound peculiar. I rarely hear NIS spoken, I do recall hearing the "N I S" pronunciation.=20 A number of well-known educational institutions and other organisations use= the phrase 'an NIS'. This number is large enough for me to believe that it is an acceptable norm. In no particular order, but beginning with MIT:=20 =20 slides 33 an= d 42=20 =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 = =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 =20 ---- HTH =E2=80=93 hope that helps =E2=80=93 ope that elps :-) --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
