ULE Pronunciation

[spantol]

What's the official way to pronounce ULE? Is it "You-Elle-Ee," "Oo-Lee," or something different?

[Skoad]

you-el-eee

Its the abrevation for Ultra Light Enginering ( im pretty sure) so the annitions are just said like letters - U.L.E. just like U.S.A. is short for United States of America.

I've always pronounced it like "yule" (yoo·uhl), seems more fitting... I haven't had to speak it very often, though. This may turn into some sort of "tomayto" vs. "tomahto" debate.... and yes I know how to spell tomato, but how else can I differentiate the pronunciations? :cool:

Well, if you like sounding out the letters, it would sound like you-l-ee (U-L-E). I like to make it sound slick, so I prefer you-lee (U-LEE).

Or, if you want to get "foreign" you could always say "sans serrure de torsion"?

:D

"ewe-elee"

I say yule, just like the Christmas carols. :)

Much like the abbreviation for Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus is pronounced "ess-see-ewe-bee-ay." :)
