Well, considering many words in the English language are pronounced differently in different areas of the country, I guess we can assume the same can be said for words/letters we are not native speakers of!

How do you pronounce the X in your org's name? Because technically, in Greek, it's pronounced "key" - with a slight throaty, almost rolling of the 'k' sound. So if you pronounce it 'ch-eye' like my org does, maybe you shouldn't have crossed???
