::Indeed. American geologists also pronounce it "nice" [[User:Lcarsos|lcarsos]] ([[User talk:Lcarsos|talk]]) 18:06, 20 August 2012 (UTC) | ::Indeed. American geologists also pronounce it "nice" [[User:Lcarsos|lcarsos]] ([[User talk:Lcarsos|talk]]) 18:06, 20 August 2012 (UTC) | ||
:::According to my geologist father, 'gneiss' is pronounced as "nice" and 'butte' as "beaut." He also says that buttes are almost never gneiss: gneiss is a metamorphic rock, and buttes are almost always formed from sedimentary rocks. (Gneiss can form bornhardts, which are also bumps of rock, but form by a different process and don't look very similar.)[[User:Sapphie| Variables won't, constants aren't.
