In AIBU because handy poll function.
In DD's english (as a foreign language) lesson she was told that medicine is pronounced med-sin, with no i sound in the middle but I have never heard anyone say it like that. So how do you pronounce medicine?
YABU = med-sin
YANBU = med-i-sin/med-e-sin (not really sure how to write out that pronunciation)

med-i-cal
