Our office just had a heated debate about pronouncing niche, so I have come to see if the PH community can give us the final verdict. 😂

Only Niche (neesh)! I do hear a lot of Americans say nitch though which is very funny. There is no T in the word so not sure how they think that it should be pronounced like that 😊

@simona_o_neill3 and thus lies the issue with the English lanugage 😂 It's the hard "che" like cheese?...Should we be saying sheese?
@simona_o_neill3 yeah, it has to be neesh. No two ways about it.
NEESH! Where are all of my Northeast American English folks?!
@janie_baek hahaha guess this will also be an indicator of where in the world community members are from!
@janie_baek where are you based?
@janie_baek I’m in NYC, Tribeca area. You?
snitches get stitches
quiches take up niches
Who pronounces it nitch?😂
@geri_mate Apparently according to Google it is common in the US!?
@geri_mate tons of Americans. I had to train myself to switch to "neesh"
If this discussion doesn't go viral, I will start pronouncing it "Nitch"
Most of the PH users probably call it "AI SaaS for Crypto-based community platform"
Neeeshhh haha that's right
@shivangiawasthi I am predicting a victory for team neesh
Nish in Spanish
Neesh (niCH) according to the translator 😄
The word you're referring to is likely "niche." The pronunciation can vary, and both "neesh" and "nitch" are commonly accepted pronunciations.
Launching soon!
Neesh
The second version hahah
neesh as a French
@ipaparazzo_app haha this is the confirmation we all needed being that it is taken from the French language! 🙌
@ipaparazzo_app The first thought when I read this was "wait what about cheese" but then I was like that's "fromage" and then the only word that came to mind was "chemise" 😂 High school GCSE french coming through 🇫🇷
Launching soon!
ITS Nietzsche!!!! 😅
@sentry_co I read this in high pitch 😂
