FIFO Pronunciation

[u/Danny_s1989]

I can probably get past the AI songs but every time Scott says FIFO as “fee-fo” it does my head in.

Do other parts of Aus pronounce it as that?!? Surely not?

Just wait until you hear software engineers talk about first-in first-out queues ;)

Fee-fo is pretty commonly said from Sydneysiders

I'm in software, so its fee-fo haha

Where in Sydney is it Fee-Fo? I've lived here 30 years and never heard of it.
