[wefe]

but its [whyfy] most prbely,..
adverts and everything say Why-Fye for Wi-Fi, therefore it must be correct. Also Wi and Fi are abbreviations for Wireless Fidelity meaning its just 2 abbreviations glued together meaning grammatical rules don't apply to each part of the section (as if it were one 'word'). Meaning you pronounce each bit as a seperate word.

Or this could be an elaborate trick, as technically 'Wifi' should be pronounced 'wiffy', but it is not the correct notation of it. Wi-Fi is.

:P i think
