And it's hard to type (typing how something is said is hard for me to do), as I know I mispronounce it. I know that much.
Haha. Understandable. I think it would be interesting to see how you type it.

That's how most people would say it because that's how its written phonetically, but it's actually pronounced "Press-Kit." It's one of the big things that Arizonan's love to argue with out-of-staters about. I'd imagine it's the same thing that Nevadan's have to deal with. Is it Nuh-Vah-Duh or Nih-Va-Duh?

Press-kit is how I pronounce it, now that I think about it. (But my brother was the one who kept on correcting me, so I get it right now). I get weird looks from people who pronounce it like Press-cott. :P

Huh I would have never thought to say "Press-kit" I would say it Pres scott... I guess that like Arkansas in Kansas.. we say it "Are- Kan-sas" rather than "Are-kan-saw"

If you are from Arkansas they put the "saw" at the end of it instead of "sas".. strange huh? The Arkansas river runs through Kansas so we are always debating the right way how to say it.
