My buddy says "chasm" with a soft ch. We've tried to correct him. He doesn't hear us. He also pronounces "tome" like "tomb".

We play DnD together if anyone was wondering why these words would come up with any regularity.

I've heard "chasm" pronounced as both "chaz-um" and "kaz-um"

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

The correct one is "kaz-um," just like "chaos" isn't "chay-oss."

I total believe you're not in a weird magic cult winks

Does he say "chaos" with a soft "ch" as well?

He also pronounces “tome” like “tomb”

My roommate in college did that. Drove me nuts, but the worst was that he rhymed "epitome" with "tome."

No, his chaos is thankfully chaos. It would be kind of fitting if it weren't, though.

PTSD flashback to my ESL little self always mispronouncing choir after they told me to join to practice my English.
