ok,this might sound highly puerile and silly,but could you help solve an on-going argument please?Do you pronounce the word"medicine",as "medsin" or "meddysin"before we come to blows please?

more of meddysin here lol:)

im a meddysin :-)

'Medsen' here.

lol the battle might still continue at this rate :) :)

meddysin!

Meddysin!

Med-i-sin here!! :)

meddysn

med-y-sun for me

The OED allows three pronunciations: "meds'n, medisin and medis'n". So we're all right. :-)

maybe stick to meds LOL  Its medisin here but come to think of it more like med a sin

Med-y-sun here !

medsen here is possibly to do with dialects as well.
Bedroom, bebrm (no oo's) garage, garidge where you was brung up!!

Medsen in this house!!!

cheers,evryone!most of you seem to agree with me(meddysin)so ha ha jim,im.right and youre not,!

:-D

>most of you seem to agree with me(meddysin)so ha ha jim,im.right and youre not,!

There's always the possibility that most people on here are wrong .... but in fact no, you're both right - the OED says so! Meddysin and medsin are equally acceptable. :-)

med-y-sun for me too

med y sun

I'm a medysin

And another one ... do you say vej-tables or vejy-tables?

Med-i-cine and vej-tables for me and definitely tom-ah-to and poh-tay-to :-)

^ What she said! :-)

I like pronunciation when it's regional dialect orientated "agayne, agayun,arrgen,uhgen, Aguyn, Again..."
What makes me cringe is corruptions like "Hospical' 'Arks' (for ask) and 'pacific' (specific) [shudder]
   I was reading a website yesterday for Mobile phone reviews and of 100 odd reviews the vast majority all started with "I brought my phone from Carphonewarhouse/phones for U / Vodaphone etc.." quite a few were 'braught'

OMG... me too... another pet hate is when people incorrectly use bought and brought.... its not rocket science...brought to bring and bought to buy
