RobDraw Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 If you say it with a lisp, you are pronouncing it wrong. I always wondered why a word with an "s" is it was chosen to describe that affliction. I always thought it's kind of cruel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLW210 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 The acronym is LISP same as the word lisp, why would anyone pronounce it any other way? LIPS, must be dyslexia or someone hits the right side of the keyboard faster than the left side. Don't even know why one would use LIDS.

I always learnt it meant: "Lost In Stupid Parentheses" and it was something I quickly understood to be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
