A small question.
If you have a look at the ED article on this place, there's some notes about pronunciation:

Like users of 4chan's /b/, users of b3ta refer to themselves as "b3tards", which is pronounced exactly the same way as /b/tard: in the United Kingdom, the Greek letter "beta" is pronounced "BEE-ta" (as in "beat off") rather than "BAY-ta" (as in "masturbater").

Of course, in accordance with this, I say bee-ta.

AA, who I was alarmed to hear, calls it bay-ta.

How do you say it? Or do you not refer to this hallowed place in normal conversation?


NB I speak Ancient Greek with a scottish accent anyway, so my knowledge of pronunciation is pretty much ouden.

Hmm
Most people I've met from here have called it BEE-ta, as would I.

Which in my Scottish accent, does not actually rhyme with Peter, like it says in the FAQ.
