... Are they supposed to be different?@Animal Midwife Does it make you feel any better knowing I cannot for the life of me pronounce Dawn and Don differently?
Well, one of them was him going "Ala-BAMA" so maybe that's actually how you pronounce itOkay but some of those sound like jinny and some of those sound like jenny so I'm still just as confused
and some are jenn AY.Okay but some of those sound like jinny and some of those sound like jenny so I'm still just as confused
It's not wrong, you just live on the other side of the pin-pen line.This thread is madness, if I replied to every person pronouncing things wrong then I'd add another two pages like the ones that magically appeared today

interesting reading if you happen to be a closet linguistics nerd.The PIN-PEN Merger
Why are so many Americans rhyming "ten" and "tin"? The origin of this ubiquitous feature in American English.www.acelinguist.com
the only person who is wrong is that one coworker i had years ago who somehow managed to get egg and bag to rhyme by pronouncing them ayg and bayg.
Edit to make it game sign-up relevant: yes, this is what I'm like when i've had a few shots.
I don't understand why you sad reacted my saying that perhaps genny is pronounced ala-BAMA.This thread is madness, if I replied to every person pronouncing things wrong then I'd add another two pages like the ones that magically appeared today

I feel so seen.Ace Linguist said:The most important thing to notice about the pin-pen merger is that it only happens before nasals. This means that "pit" and "pet" are unaffected by the merger. Only "n" and "m" are really affected, since there are not many words ending in "eng".
I was unaware I had it until I read up on it a while ago, since I actually do distinguish pin and pen. But when and win are usually pronounced the same for me.Finally had the time to read this through and

I never realized my northern neighbour state was so southernYes, to the first group. No, to the second group.
Also I don’t understand if genny means the proper way to say it is the southern way or if she means it rhymes with whinny when said with that vowel merger I still don’t know how to say gennyOkay but some of those sound like jinny and some of those sound like jenny so I'm still just as confused
Wait do you say bahgI can see ayg, but bayg is an atrocity.
Wait do you say bahg
