To be appalled that DP pronounces the L in almond

[BumpPower]

I say armond.. Am I wrong? Almond sounds wrong..

[UmbongoUnchained]

I e never heard anyone say Armond?!

[wineandcheeseplease]

Almond here. Your way sounds odd to me!

[redhat]

um, you're wrong I'm afraid. But by no means the only one.

[branofthemist]

I have a friend who does it. I laugh every time.

I have no idea who is right. Wether you should or not. But after 34 years of never hearing the 'L' I makes me laugh.

[RastafarianTargaryen]

Almond sounds better than armond.

[2nds]

I'm with your DH

[TheUnsullied]

I've only ever heard the make believe people inside the TV say armond.

[MaisieDotes]

I say ahmond.

But apparently both are correct (silent l or pronounce l).

[BrendaFurlong]

Regional differences?
My DF says almond with the l sounded, and comes from the South West of England. I grew up in the Midlands and don't sound the l.

(I am also in a mixed marriage on the scone front.. we have learned to live with the difference!)

[BombadierFritz]

Armond?????

[PassiveAgressiveQueen]

Armond here

[TheRealAdaLovelace]

it's an arl-mnd
Are they saying AL-mond? that could be a bit odd.

[TaliZorahVasNormandy]

I'm with your DH here. I pronounce the L.

[myownprivateidaho]

I would say armond. I think al-mond is the American and the Indian English pronunciation.

[MyAmDeryCross]

I say almond. Is it a geographical thing?

[bloodyteenagers]

If it was meant to sound armond there would be a r in the spelling. But there's not.

[cbigs]

Ah-mnd here too.

[FlyingElbows]

I say ah-mond
AhI-mond is irritating.
Ol-mond is supreme wankery.

[tibbawyrots]

Ahrmund

[OurBlanche]

But Armand is a name, of an Anne Rice Vampire...

The almond is a nut...

[ExcuseMyEyebrows]

I say ahmond. There is no 'r' in almond and the 'l' is silent.

[2nds]

I've just looked it up on here and it seems that we are all wrong and it's a silent L like wtf? www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/pronunciation/english/almond

I'll still say almond though!

[branofthemist]

I would say ah-mond

Rather than aRmond

[TheUnsullied]

Not arl-mund, no...

It sounds more like ol-mund.

[AlbusPercival]

I'm an arlmond I'm sfraid
