I agree So much fun, and great prizes.

Hey, the title of this thread has me puzzled. I've always pronounced it like it rhymes with 'moustache'

But recently someone told me it was 'Aga - stack - ee'. So ?? What's correct?

Hoo boy! Hate to nit pick but those two links each have different pronounciations.

First one is "Aga stack ee" with the accent on the stack or stock.

Second one is "Ah gas stucky" with the accent on the gas.

I am aghast. Rolling my eyes. Green Grin! but not surprised.

I did notice that difference. Oh well, as long as we get close I suppose.

Elaine, you witty girl you!

What a weird word -- I thought it was something like "a GAS stu kee"

(actually, for quite a long time I thought it was "aga stash" and then somewhere I saw it was the above... Blinking

That's what I thought it was, too Sandy.

My DH is going to be surprised to find out that hair on his upper lip is really a "mu STA stu kee". Ain't the English language silly.
