I would pronounce it "jy-row" actually, even though it's not.

I can't speak right at all. The other day I was reading something to my wife and came across "Paradigm" and read it "PEAR-UH-DID-GEM" ... she looked at me funny, so I repeated it, then realized what I was doing and lost it.

This is kind of funny. KM has a Dilbert book where Scott Adams uses the word "paradigm" very often as a joke that business people like to use it even though nobody has a [censored] clue what it means. I still don't know what it means. It's pronounces "pair-uh-dym" right?
