It's "psych" as in "He psyched us out" which comes from "using psychology on them"
So many people spell it incorrectly that I'm starting to worry that "sike" will become the official spelling. Language evolves, but I don't want it to.
Be the lack of change you want to see in the world!

Or "would of", "could of", "should of". Enunciate your words. "have" and "of" sound different.
Excellent point, but "would've", "could've", and "should've" sound like "would of", "could of", and "should of".
So the problem doesn't lie solely in enounciation.
If you think "of" and "have" (or it's contraction) sound alike, you're part of the problem. "Of" has a softer finish more like "ovf" than "ov". The transition from 'o' to 'f' starts hard with a 'v' but finishes with a soft 'f'.
I never knew it hat a source,.. I thought it was a word like "ouch" or "oops"
Edit: English != mother tongue
I commend you, but it's a losing battle.
