I don't think I've ever heard anyone pronounce the d.

Basically Sah-wich. South London.

My dad says Sang-wich which makes me near murderous with rage.

Sand-wich, but I don't overly emphasise the d in a weird way.

OhLordyWhatNow · 15/07/2022 01:40

The d is soft and blends into the second syllable. So maybe sounds like sanduh witch

RedRec · 15/07/2022 01:51

Samwidge.

Ooo, your right! No T sound at all saying it out loud!

5% San-witch
95% Sammy

Which makes no sense come to think of it.

APJ1 · 15/07/2022 03:02

San/sam-widge. If it's a really delicious one though, that's a sammich (something I must've got from US TV)!

ClumpingBambooIsALie · 15/07/2022 03:06

Sanwij.

Nizathe · 15/07/2022 03:10

Sam-widge

mowglika · 15/07/2022 03:17

Or sometimes, just to wind up my DH:
sam-midge

Plutoisaplanet · 15/07/2022 03:40

Sand witch here.

TreeOfPain · 15/07/2022 03:46

There is a d in sandwich.

Shame on you all that neglect that.

San-dwich.
