Silly question about the pronunciation of HiGHS

[senhalil]

Hi! I recently heard through the grapevine that HiGHS is pronounced similar to Higgs as in Higgs-boson. Is there any truth to it? I was pronouncing it like a plural version of the words high/high/hie. I figured I should ask and make sure that I correctly pronounce a word that I use quasi-daily.

Not such a silly question, as we've had HiGHS pronounced "higgs" many times.

The correct pronunciation is simply "Hi's" - Think of the high mountains in our logo!

Thanks @jajhall 🙇
