Title: Is Wiseco pronounced Wise co or Wy see co
Post by: Kenneth S (222) on March 22, 2012, 08:00:25 pm
Ok you guys from the US, for the last 3 decades at least I have been pronouncing Wiseco as Wise co then a mate of mine said to me no it is pronounced Wy see co. Surely not! Help me, its keeping me up at night.

YES!! I've always called it Wise co and every now and then I hear people go Wy see co and I go What the? But then I wonder if I'm wrong... glad to see I'm not. Thanks 74yza.

Just to throw another interpretation into the mix.
My brother worked at the shop on Parramatta rd Concord years ago and I always thought it was pronounced.
Wis' co , as apposed to Wise Co, drop the e if that makes sense?
Hard to compare the written word.
You say potato and I say potarto, you say tomato and I say tomarto.
Let's call the whole thing off. ;D

Andrew aren't you injured? Mate you are mad to want to go on one of those things. They do look fun but the body takes enough of a beating riding solo.
