On the latest #ATPpodcast I heard @siracusa pronounce the HEIC image format as a word - "heek" [hiːk]. He is the first human I have heard pronounce it as a word. I feel like, for me, it will always be "H E I C".

There are several acronyms I treat this way, that I've heard others say as words, thinking about it.

PNG, SVG, BMP, IFF, SQL, URL, LED, GUI, PDF, PCMCIA (well...), etc.

I am old and set in my ways.

By the way, GIF is not on that list because I pronounce it as a word starting with a soft G, because that is how that is pronounced.

"Why did you call your file 'text.pdf.pdf'."

"What do you mean?"

"Why do you have the extension twice?"

"Oh, that? Safety."

"What?"

"It's like when you tie your shoes. You put a safety knot to prevent it from untying, right?"

"Yes."

"It's the same with the double extension. I want to make sure that the computer really knows it is a PDF."

"Your explanation is stupid-stupid."

"Why do you say stupid twice?"

"Safety. I really want you to know that it is stupid."
