    I already do this with the word “solder” which confuses my fellow Americans greatly. They seem to think I’m lying that the L is sounded out in some other English speaking countries.

    I just think the American pronunciation (SAW-dur) sounds wrong.

      Out of all the different ways Americans pronounce words differently, hearing sodder is the only one that makes me cringe.

      I always find it odd that Americans pronounce it so weirdly, but that’s different cultures with different fresh takes on our language I suppose.
