To hate that 'wrath' is CONSTANTLY pronounced wrong.

[RocketInMyPocket]

It's roth, not rath fgs!!!
PS regional shmegional

I'm not over keen on Anthony being given the 'th' sound in the middle either. That's an Aussie-ism too.

Definitely roth. I've never heard rath, it's just wrong!

Thumb Th in names always confuse me.
Eg. Jason Statham
I always thought it was stat-um (going with ham is usually 'um' at the end) but it's apparently stayth-um so I don't know..

wrath wrap wrangle

ah!

warble warp warm ward war warn wart....

OH GOD!!! I just remembered!!!
"Eye-raq"
"Eye-ran"
"Eye-talian"

You have heard of accents, haven't you Rocket? You do realise that other people in the world besides you speak English and don't necessarily sound exactly like you?

Ah yes, Rocket, I think it's fair enough to get confused by surnames - but Anthony is pretty routinely pronounced Antony elsewhere :). I heard tell of someone called Anthony (Brit) employed in a Sydney office, and they wouldn't call him Tony because they couldn't see how that came from his name. It would help me enormously if I could remember who told me that story...

Mind you, I expect I'm just as annoying because I always say Heston Blumen-tahl rather than his pronunciation of Blumen-th-all because of the German derivation - can't quite deal with the anglicised version of it!

Where I am (NI) Antony and Anthony are 2 seperately pronounced names. I have more Anthonys in my family than you could shake a stick at.

Oooh Rocket, I never knew that!

I've NEVER heard anyone pronounce it Roth. If I said that I guarantee nobody would have a clue what I was saying and almost definitely correct me to rath.

I find the way English people believe their way of pronouncing things is the "right" way extremely arrogant.

I'd like to hear you pronounce Dara O Briain's name or Dylan Moran, so I could point and judge OP.

at the American version of Craig. That used to wind me up to no end on the show Dexter- 'craggs-list'.

Not a word I use often tbh but have always read it a rath. I don't care if it's wrong because Roth sounds daft to me.

Cailin Lighten up!
Just an AIBU, on a predominantly British site, not the threat of the firing squad!
It's still roth btw

Feck off

You are wrong to wrangle over the pronunciation of wrath. It's a wrap.

Is it a cake or a merongue? apologies to non-Scottish mn-etters who haven't heard this joke about 'posh' Edinburgh accents.

oxcent - bull pronunciation!

To me it's rath to rhyme with the way I say path, bath etc, as I'm northern.

Those of you saying roth, do you all have southern accents and say barth, parth?

Surely it's just a southern/northern thing? Or isn't it?

Its dara o brain of course

I say rath because i say bath and not barth and so to me its the same.

Cross post!

great breens think alike

Does anyone say wrop instead of wrap?

(apart from Lloyd Grossman?)

How do you pronounce Dara O'Briain and Dylan Moran Cailin? I thought they were said as they sound

FWIW the grammatically correct sentence is 'AIBU To hate that 'wrath' is CONSTANTLY pronounced wrongly'

People sometimes pronounce words wrongly that they have only ever seen written and not spoken; but to critiscise someone else when using poor grammar yourself? PMSL - fail!

I believe the correct pronunciation is Dora (as in dot) O' Briain.
