Hi all,
You're quite right Bernd, I really did try, but I couldn't resist a reply to
this one.
I've always said Brek-key-ah, but heard a few bresh-e-ah's and even a brack-e-
ah!
I also pronounce "tomato" as tom-art-o and "garage" as ga-ridge .......I once
heard these words strangely pronounced as tom-ayyt-o and gur-aaaaaaaaaj - but
I must have mis-heard.........surely???? :-)
Regards from wet & wild Scotland UK
Rob.
