I'm not sure how I'm supposed to say it.

Is it "sky-pee" or "skippy" or like rhymes with "swipe"?

How do you pronounce the word Skype?

"Skype rhymes with ripe and type."

Don't you watch who wants to be a millionaire? It's pronounced "sk-eye-puh". Watch one of their shows where the person uses the "expert" line.
