How do you think people are pronouncing them?

[-] knowone@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 week ago

Closer to "Vegeta", if that makes sense. Just like how so many people say tortilla without proper pronunciation on the l's

Honestly I've never heard anyone pronounce it like that, more like "fah-eater".

Wow fair enough, I've heard so many do it. Obviously I don't know your background but I think maybe it's because I grew up and have spent a fair bit of my adult life in the northern countryside? The non-White English demographic round my home region is very low. And I've never met a Spaniard or Latin person around there either, I'm pretty sure. Just a theory, anyways
