I will say the jewel er y just to make my kids laugh.

I think there is a vendor, maybe Lori Greinier who says it that way but I may be wrong.

I think it must be a charming regional way of saying it?-new yawk maybe?

And the real a tor. Well, we all know that is the correct way to say it. As @Zhills discussed here on the difficulty of saying realtor how can you say real tor without hurting your tongue

I think we all need to just accept that we should say it the proper way-"real a tor." Please let your sister know @jackiejenny We don't want her to embarrass herself

I will let her know she has been pronouncing realtor all wrong even though she has been in the biz for 30 plus years!

I will tell her @on the bay told me to tell her the "correct" pronunciation!

If any of our teachers were still alive, I would tell them they didn't know what they were talking about either!
