[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] elmicker Nope. You're wrong. Both my oxford and chambers dictionaries state it to be the soft "o", saying "awwhnix" is just a corruption probably from some rural hick miner's drawl. "oh-nix" is the way to pronounce it, just like on pokemon.[/quote] on pokemon they also say awwnicks also.. oxford sucks!!! go not oxford! if maybe i might just do research.. but im kinda in the not caring mood.

On-icks, like kicks.
