>>Sorry, how do you pronounce the letter "z"? Is there perhaps a difference between the UK and the US? My dictionary (Oxford American Dictionary) lists the pronunciation as "zee", which is also what I learned in school (an American school).

Ah, I see. In German we pronounce it like "tsett", which is more similar to the British pronunciation.
