    While reading a random post about english pronunciations in NUF somewhere I was wondering how do you people pronounce Nuf.
    I am not an English speaker and many times my pronounciations pronunciations are wrong.

    Do you pronounce it like roof?

    Or you pronounce it like enough?

    Or do you have another way of pronuncing pronouncing it?

    If I did pronounce NUF then I would pronounce it like exactly like enough without the e. However for the most part i either do it as N - U - F seperatly or i just do the whole Novel Update Forum (which is what I do 90% of the time for all acronyms). Acronyms (at least here in the states / in the south where I have lived my whole life) are said as individual letters instead of as a word so that people aren't confused and for the most part aren't used in any form of conversation outside of sports and stocks xD.

    Edit - I was typing this 30 seconds after you made the post xD all the coinciding comments above happened while I was typing and I find this greatly amusing.

    I pronounce it like enough becuase noughies sounds better than noofies. Especially when noughies are like nothing.

    NUF is an initialism so it's just N-U-F. Do you pronounce CIA as SEE-A?
