>tfw can't pronounce "iron" correctly
I say "eye-run" but it's apparently "eye-urn". Fuck this shit. Fuck you.
Tfw American speaking English my whole life
It's not "I, Ron" ?
Fuck me.
the r sounds fuck me up too opie, but I'm not a native english speaker
I've legitimately been (lightly) laughed at multiple times in my life for pronouncing it that way. Swear to God. I'm in the Northeast, if that matters.
"Eye-ron" is the norm in some British regional accents.
Point out the difference in pronunciation between irony and ironic, and everyone loses their minds.
I may be a virgin loser who spends his life posting on imageboards and drowning his sorrows in alcoholism, but it gives me solace to know there are people like you out there.
I most often hear it as "I earn", "I Ron" is what the non-native speakers may say
Th-there's a difference? Is it supposed to be "eye-urny" or something?
I've been pronouncing it "Aye, row n"
that's how people say it here
>caring about and trying to improve your pronunciation makes you a bigger loser than a faggot alcoholic
I take it you're the angry-insecure hybrid drunk?
It depends on whether you're talking about the metal or the thing that gets wrinkles out of clothes.
Who else has been pronouncing sword wrong?
Nah, I just haven't been mispronouncing iron my whole life.
>Fuck me.
when and where
No, you've just been pumping loads of it into your kidneys, you fucking wino.
It's gotta be a regional difference or something. I feel like it's such a subtle change in pronunciation I wouldn't notice which way someone was saying it in the middle of a sentence. I say "eye-urn". But that's not how the word looks phonetically so I get where you'd get the other pronunciation.
>be born and raised in America
>still can't pronounce defiblerator on the first try
>be born and raised in america
>still cant speak english without translator
>tfw all my friends keep laughing at me whenever I pronounce something wrong all the time
>I call Doves "Doh-ves instead of Duh-ves
>he doesn't pronounce it Dah-ve
English is pretty retarded, really. The anglos are the greatest trolls of all time making the rest of the planet learn it as a second language.

>always pronounced wojak as "void-check"
>everyone pronounces it "woah jack"
you are all wrong and I am correct
I have always pronounce salt as 'solt'.
I have lived in America my whole life. i have no idea why i pronounce is like i do or if anyone else on earth does either.
This reminds me of how my family used to relentlessly make fun of me for the way I mispronounced "eyebrows" for years. Even to this day I'm afraid of saying the word and hope I never have to say it.
