Is stepson from the deep south where "ch" and "sh" can both be pronounced like the sh in Sharon
Nope, he's from Montreal. But I've always pronounced "chard" with a /sh/ rather than a /ch/ (and have just found out I'm wrong), so he'd been hearing both /shard/ and /tchard/ over the previous couple of days.
But still. Yikes.
Well, did you think it was prounounced "Steve" or something?!
