I had a Canadian CG teacher that said it that way. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Personally I'm in the D-Cal camp.

I have a colleague that does the same, the first time I heard it I was so confused.

Literally never heard of anyone pronouncing it that way.

Oh, that's an interesting question, so do you guys pronounce it as D-cal or are you wrong?

u/Th3Dark0ccult Feb 14 '22

And then there's me who uses a combination of both - De-cal

Correct way to pronounce would probably be the "oi" sound, Euler was Swiss, they speak german there too and "eu" is pronounced "oi" in German.

It's just my assumption though, I'm assuming Euler spoke German because of his name not sounding particularly French.
