Calling an AyA anything other than an A and A in English is a little like calling a Porsche a "PORSH" in English or a Jaguar a "Jagwire".

Yes, many people do it & every one will know what your talking about but doing so speaks volumes about your education level, background & life's experiences.

I'll admit to slipping up on the AyA ever once in a while but try not to. I never took Spanish so I have an excuse.
