Feel free to move if this is in the wrong place.
I pronounce “column” as “coll-um”, like Gollum, with a definite “oll” sound. In this video I was watching, a woman pronounced it as “cull-um”, with an “uh” sound.
I’ve never heard this pronunciation before. She definitely sounded English rather than American/Irish, and not like someone foreign with English as a second language.
Is it a regional thing, or could it just be an individual quirk?
