Thank you very much to the 4 people who quickly responded a few days ago as to how to spell vis-á-vis out loud for an upcoming spelling bee. I apologize that the moderator did not think it was on-point and closed my question (he probably will close this one, too!) I had done a lot of on-line research and still could not find the answer. My son actually won the all-school spelling bee yesterday, so your help was quite meaningful. Thanks again.

This isn't a question. It should ideally have been a comment on the earlier question. However, congratulations to your son! – Andrew Leach Jan 22 '15 at 16:03

2Congratulations, Jen! Did he have to spell vis-a-vis? This is a feel good moment. Thanks for your thoughtful heads up @medica. – Good A.M. Jan 22 '15 at 16:14

4It helps if you get the written version right: vis-à-vis. That's an a-grave, not an a-acute (which doesn't exist in French). – Edwin Ashworth Jan 22 '15 at 16:30
