The latter choice in both cases.
When I was studying Linguistics at SIU Carbondale we had a Professor
(Kyle Perkins)
who pronounced "larynx" as "larnix".
AND, needless to say, when I program I subvocalise everything as I go along.
Do you pronounce FIELD
Rhimes with "filled"
Rhimes with "feeled"
Do you spell "rhyme" with a "y" or an "i" ?
