American forums are the worst. Frequent use of the word 'then' when they should be saying 'than'. "My grammar is no worse then yours"

"An 'alf" is the way cockneys talk Shaun. You do not say "An 'otel" unless you are from the Eastend. "An Hotel" is correct. Again not "A Hotel". People do not pronounce N's' before Aitch's anymore. "An house" is correct, again, not "an 'ouse". FGS, ask an high class secretary with an forum count under 10,000. She will set you straight.

Aitch.

Aitch, bitches.

Stacey. 29-09-2010 07:14 PM

Haitch because aitch just sounds wrong when it begins with the letter "H" anyway.

Niamh. 29-09-2010 07:15 PM

Haitch

English isn't my first language but I don't pronounce it like a weirdo (if I did, then that'd be worrying considering I've been learning English for 15 years), so I pronounce it Haitch.

Tom 29-09-2010 07:22 PM

On its own its pronounced as 'Aitch' but when its used in a word its pronounced with emphasis on the 'h' sound e.g. hotel. 'Haitch' is incorrect and it really annoys me
