how do you pronounce "been"

[JJ]

This is for my son's spelling. I'm American and say "ben" but do you guys (ie Brits) say "bean"?

Two different issues, if so (ie difference between been and bean and difference between been and Ben)... thanks!!!

I say bean

I say it as in "Bean" but meaning " I have just been to work"

No wonder the list was 'see', 'tree', 'been'. Thanks!

I think I say 'bin' - but that's not help to you at all is it?

I say "bin" most of the time too ...

You haven't lived until you can hear your greek boyfriend pronounce BEACH, BITCH and PEACH. (they all aound exactly the same...) Also Purple Turtle---PPH hope you get to see this! Purpala and Turtala....

It the states we pronouce Been as Bin.

bean

:O I think my husband would kill someone if I had a Greek boyfriend to say 'bitch', 'beach' and 'peach' to me.

Thanks all.

darn changes.. can't keep up.
is what I meant. sigh.
