It's *aitch* [angry]

[ohmymimi]

Justine Greening on 'The Sunday Politics' constantly saying 'haitch' - beyond irritating.

I agree - drives me mad too.

It is! Very irritating.

It depends where in the country you come from surely? In Scotland most people I know say Haitch.

But then we also know how to pronounce an R properly

Yes, it is.

Glad to hear you know how to roll your rs , Sunny

Haitch is the norm in speakers of Irish English.

I've heard Scots pronounce the letter J as "Jai". Widen your horizons OP!

Always been aitch here.
aitch, eye, jai, kay

It's aitch. It's in the dictionary as aitch. There's only one aitch in aitch.

You are SO right. It is very annoying.

It's aitch in the dictionary, but ' because I pronounce it haitch, it's haitch' always seems to win the argument

It's 'haitch' in Ireland and always will be for me!

It's haitch and or.

Oh yes! 'Or' not 'arrrrr' like the English say

I'm English. I don't say 'arrrr'. I'm not a pirate .

What's the alternative to Jay then?

Jai as in rhymes with eye? Mind boggle.

Ah right I see! I'd say jai like Jay. Didn't realise there was any other way!

I do a mix of I
Aitch and haitch!

It's haitch. Because helen begins with a 'heh' not an 'eh'

The name of the letter is aitch not haitch. just because it makes a h sound doesn't mean it has to start with h.

The letter s is pronounced ess not sess
The letter w is pronounced doubleyou not wubbleyou

Please please don't say haitch. It's just wrong.

I work in HR. this drives me mad.

Its still haitch. Unless you're on eastenders.

No it isn't.

Our HR dept answer the phone with 'haitch r'.

Then I'm irrationally irritated and forget why I called.

'wubbleyou'
