  1. Is it like the duck noise - Quacks? Or is it like standing in a queue
    for axes - Queue-axe?

    Sorry, my phonetic spelling is not great.

  3. I heard Egon himself say 'Quacks' even though I'm of the opinion it
    should be 'Que Axe'

  12. There has been multiple threads about this.

    Egon has said that the German pronounciation is usually more like a
    form of qwaks, but in English it's pronounced just like it sounds:
    Q-Ax, or que- ax

    Well Buddha pronounces it Quacks, and Muhammad pronounces it
    "coo-acks".
