How to pronounce Peachauer?

["T"]

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.

Ahhh yes, makes perfect sense. Thanks!

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.

He even spelled it our over the phone when I called about a cue. Must have been in the early-mid '90s.
