I prefer 'Tek Nik'. To me, the word "Technic" seems derived from
"technical", so that pronunciation most closely follows.
"Tek Neeq", as derived from "technique" is also applicable. In fact, my
dictionary shows "technic" as an alternate form under the heading of
"technique".
But the pronunciation guide shows "technic" as being pronounced 'Tek Nik'.
