Call me a grammar/English geek, which I am, but it's just the right way to say it.

Lol this could turn into one of those debates, Pee-a-zo is how just about every american would say it, being english myself, north england to be precise, I say it differently, exactly like the english pronunciation here : http://dictionary.cambridge.org/pron.../piezoelectric, so you say it as pee-a-zo and I basically miss the 'a' bit out of that, both are at least in the cambridge dictionary as correct. I dont think I have heard anyone call it a pie-zo though, that sounds like something you would have for dinner. -
In other news.....90% of the people since 1977 have called him Neil Peart..(Purt) as in (Squirt)
it is pronounced (Peerat) as in..."I "peered" "at"..this girl walking down the street)

I have been (apparently) saying it correctly all these years! Thank goodness, I was worried. Pee . zo . electric! - We Brits too lazy to form that extra syllable lol.
I outright refuse to say Jif instead of Gif though, I will not conform on that!
