Which ways are both?
Scientists sometimes don’t know the pronunciation so they might both be valid…

In my head, I’ve said auto-fay-gee.
The person said uh-TOFF-uh-gee.
ETA person is also a PhD in biochemistry so probably more correct than I am

I’m realizing that I will probably never need to say that word out loud, and if I do and get it wrong I can’t see it making people thing I’m more of a derp. I’m already a huge derp. I’ll not worry about it.

Amazon is stopping services to older kindles, so I won’t be able to download books on my old kindle that I love.
And there are going to be a bunch of pissed off people at my library who can’t use Libby anymore and they will probably blame us and not Amazon.
