For example: Demonstration =Dimonstration, Present = Prisint, Temptations = Timptations, etc. Is this a regional thing? I am from up north and we pronounce "e's" like "e's" and not like "i's".</P> Wed, 15 Feb 2012 17:16:14 GMT lunchlady3 2012-02-15T17:16:14Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Is-it-just-a-southern-thing/m-p/165602#M70997 <P>I am continually hearing hosts pronounce their "e's" like they are "i's" and I was wondering if this is a regional pronounciation?
