TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Does anyone know of a web site that gives the preferred pronunciation of
hi-tech terms? For example, is DRAM pronounced dram or dee-ram, is .gif
pronounced jif as in jiffy or gif as in gift? I prefer the latter form in
both cases, but others disagree.
Regards,
Dave.
