How would you pronounce vegetable?

[217liz217]

veg-e-table or veg-ta-ble?

How about a specific vegetable?

How do you say lettuce...?people who say lettiss really grind my gears.

I am filling all the silences where OP should be explaining her intrigue...

But Bewty , are you Scottish or a posh twat??!?

Veg- tabul. My OH loves the way I say this word and makes me repeat it to shrieks of laughter.

The second.

Someone on breakfast tv let saying courgeeeet the other day. On the 3rd cut back to the veggie shortage story she reverted to Courgette. I want to know if she was a little tongue tied standing out in the cold or had always pronounced it that way.

Lettiss is wrong? How else can you pronounce 'lettuce' OP?

Bus or bas? I've always said bus- I'm from Coventry which my Londoner wife thinks is 'up North'. 'Bus' is another word that makes her laugh.

Wensdy, Libry, Febry, BUT I do say appreciate not appreshiate.

My OH said Birminhum instead of Birmingham earlier this evening.

Am not OP joystir : OP went silent.

I say let-uhs. Sort of. Not sure how to write it...with stress on lett

Hence the news at the moment about Iceberg Lettices is driving me mad... and brockly. Shudder.

When I was a kid I thought there was an n involved so called it vench-tibble

Another North Westy here. I say "vedgi-tubul" (god, autocorrect had a field day with that - pun intended...)

Veg-ta-bel

Wens-day

Wensdy, Libry, Febry, BUT I do say appreciate not appreshiate.

Scottish?

Sorry Very but if that's Scottish pronunciation I'll bile ma heid.

Wedensday
Feb Rewary
Libe rairy

But it could be Embra pronunciation. They're odd...

dh says vedguh-table

Wedensday
Feb Rewary
Libe rairy

I am Scottish. I don't pronounce February and Library like that. Others might though.

Veg-tibble.

I say veg -E- table

Wedensday
Feb Rewary
Libe rairy

is Scottish... I believe.

Wed'nsday
Feb-U-ry
Lie-bra-ry

Is how I'd pronounce them & I'm Scottish

Veg-ti-bill

Oh & I say lettis 🙈

My little brother pronounced it venchtable when he was a toddler (he's 29 now) and I still call them that in my head.

Once upon a time, many years ago, DS had a wonderful way of saying

vij-a-bulls

Now he pronounces it the same as PurpleNurple's kids, but with a stress on the first "urghhh" syllable. 🙄

my Scottishness may admittedly be compromised by my American mother and Geordie father...but we all agree on library and Wednesday I think....

It sounds like 'vesh-ta-bulls' when I say it.
