How do you pronounce the following company names?

[edro]

Call their 1-800 Support line and hear how they pronounce them.

Ah-suess

Az-rock

Mush (as in lush) + kin

Mick-Ah-Fee

 

[destrekor]

Mac-ah-fee is correct. Think John McEnroe, not Paul McCartney.

Or just watch the short video I linked to a few posts above.

Mc=Mic
Mac=Mac

As ahenkel said...

John McEnroe begs to differ.

Not according to them...

They're wrong.

ace-us

[Daverino]

I always pronounces Asus more or less like the work 'aces,' but with more 'uh' than schwa on the end.

 

[Bibble]

I always thought Asus was Ace-us because I thought I read that it was just a shortening of Pegasus. I don't pronounce Pegasus Peg-a-soos so naturally I wouldn't say A-soos (although I seem to have thrown in the long A randomly, I wouldn't say Peg-ace-us either).

But it seems I have been proven wrong!
