How do you pronounce DIS?

[RVGal]

DIS

Is it DISS, like the beginning of discussion?

Or

Is it DIZ, like the beginning of Disney?



Don't ask why I care. I don't have a clue.

DIZ. And if you listen to the Podcasts, I believe that Pete (the founder and owner of the DIS) says "DIZ" too.

DIS.
Like discussion.

I've often wondered about this too. Glad I'm not the only one.

I've always pronounced it DIZ as in Disney. If you pronounce the 's' like an actual s, it sound like the slang for 'disrespect'. I'm not gonna diss the DIS!

Diz

I never really gave it any thought until I came across this thread, I just assumed everyone said Diz.

 

[Stacerita]

I pronounce it DIZ.

 

[Mickeyluver37]

It wasn't until I'd been here a few years that I figured out that most people pronounced it DIZ. I still say DIS (diss) in my head though!

 

[lulubelle]

Many years ago, answering this very question gave me my second tag

 

[Rafiki Rafiki Rafiki]

THE DIZ all the way.

 

[chisnpeke]

DIZ as in Disney!

 

[ASFCurly]

Diz, I met someone at a meet once that called it The D. I. S. I remember thinking that was weird.

 

[slo]

DIZ - like how you would say the beginning of DISNEY

 

[cinmell]

The DIZ as in Disney.

 

[scarlett873]

Yep...DIZ as in Disney!

It's how it's pronounced by the podcast team!

 

[Allison]

It's also DIZ on Dis Radio so that's definitely how it is said.
