Actually most people in the US manufacturing industry (and elsewhere) when
speaking of it use the term BULL**** as a fully interchangeable term.

This is an interesting example of how the spoken word  develops in different
countries.
Here in UK/Europe we tend to say ROSH, leaving the "ubb" silent, and
changing the subsequent "i" sound to "o". Presumably because this sounds
more pleasing or logical to the ear. In contrast North American speakers
tend to truncate the second syllable while converting the hard b to a softer
h giving Rowhas.

Hate to bring this up again, but the question as to how to pronounce RoHS is
being asked more and more by my colleagues.
 
RoHS = Rose?   Ross?   Ro-Haas?
 
Is there an agreed way to pronounce this? (Not referring to the colorful
ways some of you most definitely use when referring to this standard).
 
Regards,
 
Karl
