HAwN.
I say this for multiple reasons.
1) If I have the choice, I always use the "Aw" over "Aye", because "Aye" sounds to redneck American for me. Like the name Anna, I always say it like "Awnna", not "Ann-ah"
2) HS German class. That's just the way A's are in German, it kinda bled over into my English.

when speaking words, "aw/ah" is more fluid than "aye" i agree, but these are nothing but 3 individual letters, not a word. thats like asking to recite the english alphabet and you say "ah, bee, see, dee, etc" thats retarded.

but if you speak the "word" SCUBA...theres only one way to pronounce that...and "scuba" has become a "word".
