For bringing cows and cricket into his thread.

It will soon escalate into a war out here, or at least a battle.

I didn't say it was a word - the Q was whether it cud be pronounced.
oh! So nick says its not an acronym because it isn't a word - but you say it can be pronounced so it is an acronym, but now your saying that even though you can pronounce it - you weren't saying its a word....

Sussudio can be pronounced so it's a word/acronym/word-like acronym. It's not a word in the OED though.

Unless Nick was referring to some other song?

Yep.

5 points to me, I thought you meant the book.

(Not completely off topic, Susu is Malay/Indonesian for milk.
In India, it may means something else, though)

If everyone usually says "Uht" instead of U. H. T. then it is an acronym ( for instance the American Civil Rights organization SNCC, which is pronounced "snick" and not spelt out S. N. C. C. )

It doesn't matter what sort of dictionary it's in, or not.

I'm sure he meant the book, I thought I'd bowl a googly.
(Oops, cricket again).

Doesn't Genesis start with "In the beginning....?
IN is the acronym (yes, it CAN be pronounced) for India on the internet and other places, is that what u meant Nick?
