how do you pronounce colonel?
Posted on 2/26/20 at 9:22 am to LSULyle00690
Probably because there isn't, but American English speakers have a tendency to sharpen aspiration sounds to the closest sound they are familiar with.

Seems like an OT question

it's not really a "k" sound, but more of a guttural sound that westerners pronounce as a k

Why is there an "r" sound in Colonel? Clearly no "r" in that word either. Why do the British pronounce Lieutenant as "Leftenant" when there is clearly no "f" in that word.
Languages are weird. Get over it.

I don't think it's a hard 'c' like Mockmood. It's an 'ah' where the h sounds kind of like your hocking a loogey.

Confirmed that Chris Jackson will not be on his retired jersey this weekend. The racist melt will be glorious.
