How do you say FAQ?
Do you pronounce the acronym, like "Fack", or do you say "F.A.Q." I always spell it out.
(FAQ = Frequently Asked Questions, in case you were going to ask that question.. )

Re: How do you say FAQ?
If I do either, I spell it out... but normally, I'd say "Frequently Asked Questions" instead of "facks" or "F-A-Q"

Re: How do you say FAQ?
Since my husband is a geek, to him I just say fack. But to anyone who might not know what I'm talking about, I usually spell out F-A-Q or just say the whole thing.

In my experience, the old-school geeks say F-A-Q, and the non-geeks say fack.
I think there needs to be an F.A.Q. on how to pronounce FAQ.....

Re: How do you say FAQ?
I translate in my mind as "Frequently Asked Questions" because I guess my mind rarely thinks in abbreviations. If I had to say it, it would be F...A...Q"

Re: How do you say FAQ?
I think in my mind it's "fack" but I don't think I've ever had a reason to say that phrase out loud. If I did, I would spell it out.
