How else could you pronounce it?
- great_wubwub 2y agoYou could spell it out - "R-I-S-C". The first three letters could be "Rice" or "Rise" instead of "Riss". I suppose you could have a soft "C" - "risch" - but that's a stretch and reminds me of Sean Connery. Never underestimate the power of people to put weird sounds to letters. I used to do a lot of network stuff and somebody once pronounced MPLS (which you very much need to spell out) as "mipples" and it scarred me for life.
