I don't think I've ever heard someone refer to them in a word form..."avee"? I think I'd be confused at first, then laugh.

R - O - L - A - I - D - S

N - E - F

You didn't have a better question that you could ask? Was there nothing more important going in your mind than the pronunciation of .AVI?

Useless questions are the foundation of ATOT.

P.S. You can blame me for this. He asked this question in another (semi-related) thread and I suggested he make his own thread to ask the question.

You are absolutely correct, it definitely isn't.
But then how do most people pronounce -

.com
.sys
.exe

Wierd, but I've always pronounced . . . . .

com - as com
sys - as sys
exe - as E-X-E

AVI stands for Audio Video Interleave. It is a special case of the RIFF (Resource Interchange File Format). AVI is defined by Microsoft. AVI is the most common format for audio/video data on the PC.


Pronouncing it ahh-vee is wrong.


"A-V-I" is correct as it is an accronym...
