I love to meet people from across the globe who do what we do – fellow lighting professionals and lighting industry people. Something that I also enjoy is languages and how people pronounce common words. One of these words is the acronym for light emitting diode, or LED. People say this a lot of different ways, and I am intrigued and curious as to how the JimOnLight.com community of readers pronounces that term.
Some people say “led,” and some people spell it out. How do you say it? Please take the poll! If you’re an RSS feed reader and the poll doesn’t show up, please pop on over to JimOnLight.com and participate!
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.(thanks for the image, Wikipedia!)
So how do you pronounce it?
I usually spell it out, but I feel silly EVERY single time I do. Isn’t that weird?
Yeah, and I would feel silly too if I pronounced LASER “Ell-A-Ess-Ee-Arh”…
