it's clique

[MaryAnnSmotheredinchocolate]

not click-y ...

Isn't it Blessed are the Meeque Clique, puppy?

We are going in circles now.

(A clique circulique)

Oh yes. The meak. I've got A level RE you know...

But the weak too, they never get anything.

And the cheese makers...

Oh, 'click' never fails to rile me, it doesn't even sound the ruddy same!

In fact I'm so cross I may have to strique across a cricket pitch in protest...

Puppy, I've always understood that I am blessed, no?

Nom de Plume - very good

i've been naming chiques, come and join me

Do you pronounce it "Clique" or "Click"? I always pronounce it "Clique" and my sister rofl at me the other day, she said it is pronounced "Click". Is she right? Are they all laughing at me behind my back? Am I destined to always be on the fringe of all the cliques because I can't even say the bloody word?

of course it's pronounced clique, not 'click'. your sister is wrong. It's French FGS.

it's pronounced cleak
your sis is a numpty

Hooray! I will start my very own clique tomorrow!

Princess - according to the pronunciation info in my trusty Chambers Dictionary it is definitely pronounced cleek. Said dictionary also cites the origin of the word as likely to be from the French claque, and probably associated with click... AAAARGH

I always thought 'click' was American .

I mean the pronunciation.

Oh no! moomoo. That is bad news indeed.

May I miquely add that I sique to join the pique?

(yes, it did take 2 mins to think of that one...)

This thread is just too clicky.

we should add it to a wiki
if that's not a bit too picky
off to eat a bicky

that makes me feel rather iquey.
