Haytch, the correct way

Hah

by the way

Aytch.

Aytch. I’m American. Maybe other English speaking countries say it differently?

I’ve always heard, from before I started school, that ”aitch” is correct.

TheWikipedia article states that the ”haitch” pronunciation, while widespread, is considered non-standard.

If it’s in Wikipedia, it’s got to be true!~

^^The Wikipedia you linked seems to say it’s mostly associated with Catholic teachings. I wonder if there is anything regarding social class also?

When I moved to Tennessee for the first time I heard “R” pronounced differently. For the life of me I can’t say, spell, or barely remember the other way it was said. It was used by some black people. I never knew before living there that there was two ways to say it.

Aitch.

Aytch

Aytch.

Aitch. Lots of people here in the Midlands of England say haitch. But they are mad round here. They pronounce marshmallows as marshmellows

I pronounce Marshmallows as marshmellows, but sort of more Marshmaellows, if that makes sense. I have a bitsa accent, maybe that is why

I say “marshmellows” too.

Someone is considered as “mad” because they pronounce a word differently to you?
I’d suggest that person is a mad snob

@ucme It was a lighthearted joke. Not meant to cause offence. Sorry if it did

Didn’t, couldn’t offend me just called it out that’s all

I remember a time in elementary school (a Catholic school BTW), a Sister was telling us, “There’s no ‘H’ when you pronounce the letter ‘H’!”

@ucme OK, I’ll call you out for a sense of humour failure then :-P

I’m sorry if you were offended by me pointing out the remark, the offence was taken not given.
