21. "i" in the middle? Why would anyone say it that way, when there's an "e"? It's "Wen(d)z-day." |

25. I think it's a southern dialect thing, in my case. |
|
I've never really given it much thought... I pronounce "end" like "ind" (not "ehnd"), enter like "inter", etc.

I tried to vote for your 'winz-day' option, so as to not make trouble.... but I just couldn't do it, because that's really not how it sounds when I say it.
It's just not an "i" sound there.

But then, I'm a traditionalist. I still use a fountain pen. I don't like modern things like "Wednesday".
