Just for me, can you all be sure to pronounce Poinsettia as poin-set-ee-ah this Christmas season?

The people who mispronounce it as poin-set-ah really make me cringe. I want to yell "there's an "i" at the end of the word, folks!" But then I remember it's the Christmas season and we shouldn't yell at people.





So for me, will you please pronounce the word Poinsettia as poin-set-ee-ah? Thank you so much.
