You guys know ADAC that German thing. Am I the only person that actually says A-Dak instead of saying AyDeeAyCee? (That's how you say letters if you didn't know)

Thats how I read it. I also say for ISO Settings on a DSLR, AYSOH, instead of AyEssOh

I typically say AyEssOh, but most acronyms I say instead of spelling.

It wouldn't be AyDeeAyCee in German anyway so I don't suppose it matters either way ;)

If an acronym has more than 2 letters and is grammatically pronounceable, I say it instead of spell it

I figured as much but on Top Gear they said it both ways, so I was just wondering.

Everyone I know out here in Germany calls it ADAC (A-Dak). It's like if AAA had helicopters to come rescue your ass.

In Germany, that would likely be "Uh Dei Uh Tzay". Well, sort of.
