    Like "Nitch". Neesh just sounds too odd. :confused:

    The word niche' is actually French like so many other English words it's from one of the conquered nations (wait a minute - it might have been the other way around) and is thus pronounced neesh. Forget about the Yanks they can't even spell colour correctly.

    I pronounce it 'Nitch' but my brothers girlfriend always corrects me and pronounces it 'Neesh' but it doesn't really matter everyone knows what you mean no matter how you pronounce it.

    I am American, I have always pronounced it Nitch. Therefore, it is Nitch because I pronounce it that way and I am American.

    ^ it makes sense, keep rereading it. :)

    I'm American and I say Neesh. This is the proper way to say it.

    There's no "T" in niche.

    Best post I've read in days.

    I'll admit to nitch, unless I'm speaking with someone who I've heard say neesh. I'm tricky like that.
