discreet
hicc something?
Hiccough

Pronounced

Hick Up (going up to big town)
hiccough?
I didn't realise that was also pronounced 'hiccup'
Hiccough?
Never heard anyone say they have Hic coughs
Nor me, but I've seen the word in books/dictionary and wondered why they didn't just put 'hiccup' if that was how it was pronounced
//It's pronounced "hik-cup", with the standard spelling being "hiccup".
Given recent research into etymological history, it is considered to be an error to spell the word as "hiccough" - the word, in this spelling, derives from the thought that perhaps the condition of "hiccuping" was derived from the same symptoms as coughing.//
