How do you pronounce omnictionary?

The word "omnictionary" is not a common word in the English language, and there's no official pronunciation.

However, based on its etymology (combining "omni" meaning "all" and "dictionary" meaning "a book containing a list of words"), a reasonable pronunciation would be:

om-ni-DIC-shuh-nee

Here's a breakdown:

* om: like the "om" in "come"

* ni: like the "ni" in "night"

* DIC: like the "dic" in "dictionary"

* shuh: like the "shuh" in "shut"

* nee: like the "nee" in "knee"

Of course, depending on the context and the speaker's accent, the pronunciation could vary slightly.
