How do You pronounce the word 'niche'

[OdinHades]

English has been influenced by europe? Well, no shit sherlock, it is a european language, going all the way back to the germanic. Newsflash: The US also is heavily influenced by europe. Because, you know, the majority of people living there are european who decided to friggin' kill everyone else on the continent. =D

Really though, there is no right or wrong in language. Languages are constantly changing, it's just the way it is. In this particular case, I would go for "neesh" though, as the word is french. It may be used in english, but it is still a french word. Just like Kindergarten is a german word. If you can't make up your own words, at least pronounce the words right which you are stealing from other languages. ^^
