Anyone else always read it as chick-fillah? It's such a stupid spelling.
How's it meant to be pronounced? I've only ever seen it written down.
Chick feeler? Chick filler? Chick fill urgh Chick fill Ah
I just don't understand what they're trying to call it. Unless it is "filler", my best guess is something like "fillet", though I can't make the letters match up with the words.
Chick-Fil-A is pronounced Chick-fuh-lay. It is like Chick-Filet, but the American pronunciation of filet (and what I would assume the proper French pronunciation -- the 't' is silent).
Ah, okay - so the "A" is pronounced like the letter "A", with the "feelay" bit like when McDonalds used to do "filet o'fish"?
Yes, exactly!
I always said chick fil aye in my mind
That's how they want it to be pronounced, so success I guess.
I only rock chick-adidas, never rock chick-fila
