I encountered a term called 'alpha fee' and I'm curious about its meaning. Why is it specifically referred to as 'alpha'? What's the background or rationale behind this naming convention?

The pronunciation of "Phi" in Alpha Phi is quite unique.

Instead of pronouncing it as it is commonly done in English, we say it like “fee”.

This is because in Greek, when the letter Φ follows a vowel, it is preferred to pronounce it this way.

Many organizations and groups that use Greek letters in their names follow this pronunciation rule.
