No politics please. Don't be a dick.
It's not a pipe.
Or just Photons (fo-tons)
Another vote for Vahz, like Mars.
I always thought Vayze was the transatlantic broken version of the word.
Vase - rhymes with arse. A bit.
First one (rhymes with Mars) for me as well.
I've never heard a British person say vase to rhyme with face. Have you considered your other half is a spy and their cover is blown?
this sounds wierd to me. I have heard vaz that does not really rhyme well with anything but is close to cause from because or like saws or laws. Never as something that rymes with mars or cars though. And the vase as in face type I have heard to.
Wow I've not heard that one... You've found the third way!
I swear its been used that way in movies but usually with a hoity toity older woman rich person type.
Vase.
Rhymes with face.
Imposter, it's clearly Varz.
Really? What reason could stand at the base of of your pronunciation? Can you provide even a single case where someone would lose face to embrace pronouncing it with such disgrace? I have half a mind to chase you away from this place. Or at the very least replace or erase you from this sharing space.
Whilst it is very obviously wrong, it is at least consistent with how we pronounce 'base'. English is weird.
Varz
yep, definitely a vahz to me (rhymes with mars)
Flower jar
In Belfast we’d call that a ‘Flarr Jarr’
I never know when I have to use the word on the spot, but it feels like I always pick the opposite of what the others around would say.
Very curious where your other half is from!
(I'm with you, in case that wasn't clear)
