Nee-vuh or Ni-vuh?

[Shaun]

When you say "neither" or "either", do you pronounce it with a long "e" sound or "i"?

Either way, let's call the whole thing off.

[Hugo]

Nee-vuh

[Lauren]

I use both. Oops.

Nee-vuh

But

Eye-vuh.

:conf: I think LOL.

[_Tom_]

[Scarlett.]

"Bath" or "Bar-th"?

[Shaun]

I don't want to make a separate topic for this, either:

Do you say "grass" with a harsh 'a' sound like in "maths"

or with a long 'a' sound like in "spa"?

Long a for me. :tongue:

Some words I pronounce with a "r" lol and others without. :shrug:

[Locke.]

Nei [ as in an Eye ] ther [ as in a feather ].

[Lauren]

I just the hard 'a' in words like bath, path, grass.

[Bells]

Why have you spelt it like that? I don't get it. :shrug: I know it's meant to be phonetic, but I'm on about the 'vuh' :conf:.

But yeah, the 'ee' option for me anyway, and I don't know anyone who pronounces it the other way. :hugesmile:

[Princess]

Nee-dur

Or something like that,whats with the vuh?

[Jen]

I say

Nee-thur

[Shaun]

Because neither/either is said with a "v" sound? :conf2:

No, it's said with a 'th' sound.

I say 'nee-thur'

[AndyShields]

I say Neye-Ther
I guess I'm posh :spin:

Or does that make me un-posh? :conf2:

[Firewire]

I am Scottish so I pronounce words normal.

Neether
Eeether
Bath (a soft a like the a in ass)
Grass (like the word ass)

[Xander]

I would say Eitehr or Neither with a long "E" sound.
Most of my pronoucations are quite posh e.g Bar-th etc...
But I never say Par-sta. :S

Only Americans say "par-sta" and "prar-cess" :rolleyes: Their language is like graffiti!

Yeah true, although I have heard a couple of people say Par-sta.

[Tom]

None, I say it with a th sound, not a v :spin2:

'Neether'

But I say both 'ither' and 'eether' for either.
