My wife pronounces it the wrong way
Car-mel for me.
What about Pecan?
Pe-can or Pe-con?
I say CAR-um-el. Of course, it does amuse me that people talk about Car-a-mel Church (town near here in Virginia, spelled the same way as the one in California). I got used to in living in Westminster, CO which the locals all pronounce West-Min-is-ter. Of course they also pronounce the town of Buena Vista as Byoona-Vista.
You're talking to the transplants. The locals do indeed stick an extra syllable in it. I lived in Colorado in 1981 and my roommate had grown up there to a long time Colorado family and he pronounced it that way (we even lived in Westminster). I heard it from others as well. I drew the line when listening to a local radio station and they were talking about Westminister Abbey in England.No locals I know say West-min-I-ster... just West-minster.

I can't pronounce the word "pronounce."
True tragic story.
I've never understood why "pronunciation" is spelled as such. I've always said (and heard) "pronounciation."
irony is a wonderful thingy.....I've never understood why "pronunciation" is spelled as such. I've always said (and heard) "pronounciation."
