    well, if you want it written phonetically, I'd go with daysint.. but that just looks ridiculous and may loose the meaning of the word! I dunno if there is a correct spelling of it really...

    Anytime I've seen it written, it's been "daycent"

    Basically, daycent is the opposite of wook.

    good question, something i've spent many hours wondering about myself!! I'd probably go with "daycent"
