How do you pronounce FAQ?

[basketkase543]

I was just wondering how most people pronounced FAQ. I used to spell it out "F-A-Q" then i started pronouncing it as if it was a word like "Fact". So "game faqs" would be "game facts". Yeah, i know its random, but i don't wanna do my essay right now and i was curious.

Laziness is what got me to change also.

i usually just spell out F-A-Q, but gamefaqs to me is gamefacks...

one of my friends calls it game fakwas.... what a deuche

I say it "Game-Eff-Eh-Kyews." Some friends I have and various people on SOCOM II call it gamefacks. It really is meant to be said Game(Then say each letter). FAQ is an acronym after all.

FACK

 

[XboxMaster]

I replace the "q" with "ck". But if it's plural, then I'll say it like the word "fax".

Personally, I say ba-na-na.



Seriously...fack is what I usually say. Spelling it out bothers me, for some reason...

Not necessarily. Look at NASA. or NASCAR. or NOAA.

It always bothers me when people say F-A-Q. I've always said fack or facks.

 

[SneakyPenguin]

fak, just to be different

FAQ = Frequently asked questions
AKA "Eff-Aye-Kew" or "fak" for short

Ergo, in the case of Gamefaqs it's supposed to be pronounced "gamefaks", because "game-Eff-Aye-Kews" sounds pretty retarded.

 

[JSweeney]

It depends.
Usually I'll say it like fax.
but ever so often it like so...Fah Queue.

 

[bignick]

FAK

 

[moiety]

I just say "Fack". For FAQ's, I say "Facks". Whatever makes sense to you, I guess.

 

[KingDox]

I say each letter serperate, Eff-Aye-Kew, but I also some times call it Fah Queue like JS said.

 

[KrazyKefka]

Fack

 

[evilmax17]

Fack

[YoshiFan1]

[PapiChullo]

Fack, for the most part.

F-A-Q, if I'm like, "Hey, look at this FAQ".
