      Americans. Probably Canadians, too. Although it’s more “-gut” than “-git.”

          That’s a regional thing in the US. I’ve always pronounced the second a.

          That one depends on the person. Sometimes it’s “care-mul” but others sometimes annunciate the word “carAmel” properly. Especially those in and around Carmel. Because it is not candy.

        I figured it’d be america tbh. Not a single word there is pronounced correctly

          You’re joking, right? Under what standard are words in American English pronounced incorrectly? I mean, let’s just take this example:

          Not true. We have exactly one word that is pronounced that way. 😌

        Seriously. It’s new git. Why the hell have a t if it’s silent? And I was taught by candy commercials, the only time we really even hear the word is in reference to candy.

            To distinguish it from taut which is pronounced the exact same way. :)
