A niche pronounced like Matthew said is like a recessed area in a wall to display something of importance. Or at least that is what I think. I didn’t look it up.
First
The pronunciation of niche is *not* a subjective debate. Niche is a French word, it doesn’t rhyme with “itch”, it rhymes with “quiche”. That’s no less debatable than the pronunciation of the French word “beautiful”. We can’t start saying you can pronounce words however you want, and make that “acceptable”. This word in particular is a pet peeve of mine. I’ve never heard anyone outside the USA say “nitch”. It’s just plain incorrect 😛
Now I better listen to your actual episode xD lol.
