Do you pronounce "toward" with one or two syllables? Dictionary.com says one. Has my English been out of step with the rest of the world?

Also, do you pronounce the t in kitchen? I argue it's there. My grade 2 teacher says no. It's time I lay this to rest.

If Mrs Laforet is still alive, imma gonna prank call her.

My family is all over the place. And my dad and his sister have their own separate and unique pronunciations. My aunt drops the starting h like she has an english or french accent. ie, 'otel . Yet, her vowel pronounciation isn't either.

My dad?

worm = warm
aquarium = ack-warry-um
glass of melk

There is a distinct county farmer accent here. But only some people have it. Even in the same family. I've yet to figure it out.

I should record my voice so people know how I actually sound. I'll have to fill it with Canadianisms, eh? "The Leafs' lass game was somethn' broodle" "I'll have two eggs, side by each" "Dee udder day I was looking for my 'ockey stick and I looked in da closet, and dere she was, gone!"

PLEASE DO THIS. I love hearing people's accents.

The t in kitchen is quite strongly pironounced. Toward is one syllable.

Darn autocorrect makes me spell worse than I normally would.

One syllable and yes to the "t"!

I say "too ward", and "kihchin"
