How do you pronounce: orange (1 Viewer)

[jamny]

Saw a bit on Kimmel with multiple newscasters pronouncing the word orange, I guess like it's spelled "or-ange" I say it more like Are-ange.

How about you?

IDK why, but this reminds me of a funny disease my friend said I had, it is called Onegina, meaning I can only penetrate one ######.

This. WTH is are-ange?

 

[Phil Elliott]

"ornge" (one syllable)

 

[coyote5]

I've never heard anyone pronounce it as are-ange. That's mentally challenged and I would find it hard to trust the judgement of someone that did. Might make for a good interview question.

Probably about midway between "OR-uhnj" and "ornj." The second syllable is there, but barely.

are-inj must be a regional thing. That's how I've always pronounced it. Never heard it pronounced or-inj.

I never noticed the or-ange pronunciation until Kimmel's bit. It was probably 20 newscasters from around the country and almost all of them said it that way. We are clearly in the minority.

Yeah, they're only one step above people who don't know how to spell judgment.

Yet another clear sign you are dealing with a Northeasterner.

Door hinge just sounds odd.

Northeasterners are the ORIGINAL Americans, so our pronunciation is correct. Suck it flyover states.
