Gotta get a petition running to change that, I refuse to believe it isn't 'Hedge' - 'emony'. Honestly that's disgusting.

I think US citizens say 'Hedge-emony' while the british say 'Hegeh-emony'. At least that's what google thinks lol.

I'm American and literally never heard it pronounced hegehmony. Always hedge.

[-] T4V0@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Yep, so that corroborates my comment. If you know someone british they may speak hegehmony.

That feels so unnatural!

I don't encounter it often but I seem to be thinking I've mostly heard it in the states as, "Huh-jemmuny"
