DAY-ta or D-AH-ta
Pronunciation threads are fail b/c while DAY-ta is pretty straightforward, D-Ah-ta is....well fail.
D-Ah-ta signifies that there are 3 syllables when Data only has 2. Then, "Ah" can be pronounced differently by itself. So WTF are you trying to go for with "D-Ah-ta"?
Depends on if it's singular or plural.
Day-ta for singular
Dah-ta for plural.
Data is always plural, but nobody ever uses datum. I think I might say day-ta as mentioned above when it's more singular.How is data ever singular?
I would say data is always plural.
you can technically have one "piece" of data, but that data is never one entity; data is made up of many things that come together to become data.
How is "We were able to retrieve your "day-ta"
different from, "We recovered all of the "dah-ta".
it isn't. Data is always plural =)
