Clearly, your 'i's sound nothing like 'i's. It either comes out as an 'e' or a 'u' sound.


 Strangely enough we do pronounce a 'u' somewhat when we say some things (fish and chips being the prime example) but six is not one of them. I don't know why but you will never ever here a Kiwi say anything resembling 'sux' instead of 'six' or on any word like it (licks, kicks, mix). Fush and chups/fosh and chops however....
