How do YOU pronounce Avsim?

Recommended Posts

Being somewhat emboldened by the success of my other topic. I want to ask," How do YOU pronounce Avsim?"

I have always said AV Sim as in the word 'have'. Last week I was listening to someone and they said 'Ave - sim', as in the first syllable of Aviation.

That makes sense to me but which do you use?

One syllable against two individual letters.

I am with Ian on this AV as in "have". So would that mean people banned from the forums would be AV-nots?
