Knobby! Does he also use "Deycimal"? Have to admit the only time I've ever heard "fife", "tousand" or "deycimal" used was by the examiner in my R/T practical exam - had to try very hard not to laugh! Does anyone know the reason for these? I can't see any ambiguity... I wonder if it's because they're easier to pronounce for people whose first language is not English?
