I didn't want to high jack the Meucci thread but I am actually wondering how to pronounce Peachauer?

Is is like peach hour?
 
I've always heard it as, "Pea Shower."

(At first I was going to spell it differently, but then realizing it would be NFSW... ;-)

Can't have been. Or something. Probably something.

Pronunciation is funny. Just talking to someone, they can't pronounce it back. Like my name for example. I tell XXX how to pronounce it, and he says it back so poorly several times like either he doesn't hear me right or his mouth just doesn't work it.

Anyway, several of us have had discussions with Jerry on this in years past. He wrote it down (how he pronounces it) and it matches what he says in person. Follow my link.

I have friends that are trying to slowly teach me Spanish. No matter how many times I say it (whatever it is), I say it wrong.

I wonder why there's a "t" pronounced in there. I would have thought it would be closer to "Peh-chour"

I always have a problem pronouncing this one guys first name which is "Bob" which sounds simple enough, but when I end up pronouncing it it comes out, "Douchebag".

It's simply a linguistic/phonetic break down of the sounds when you're going through a syllable change and you have that hard 'ch" sound. Part of the ch is in the first syllable. Which part? I guess the 't' makes lakes logical sense phonetically. You can do a hard stop without the t, but it's hardly a difference, IMO.

Fred <~~~ linguistically speaking
 
It used to be pronounced, Pea Chower.


Now, it's pronounced "HOLY CRAP HIS SON'S CUES ARE EXPENSIVE"!!! :D
