Poll: How do you pronounce Tomato?

[crudus]

Ketchup. I don't refer to tuh-mey-tohs any other way.

 

[MGlBlaze]

Tom-ah-toe for me.

 

[EeveeElectro]

Tom-ahhhh-toe.
That's how British people say it.
To-may-toe is for posh people and Americans

 

[War Penguin]

Tom-ay-to.
You say tomato I tomato.

[Konka]

tea-mar-tah

 

[Kasawd]

To-may-to

I figured it was the common pronunciation. This pole is proving me incorrect.

 

[orangebandguy]

To-mah-toe

 

[Emperor Inferno]

The "a" in tomato is a long vowel ("ay" sound). That is the correct way to say it. Period. It's not a matter of opinion. People who say it to-mah-to are wrong. Sorry. People sometimes say it wrong on purpose to be different, which is cool. But, ultimately, to-may-to, is correct.

 

[Nepeccel]

Tom-ar-toe

 

[rainman2203]

Your not American pronunciations annoy me.

Odds that someone makes a 'pot-ate-o po-tot-o' poll in the next 24 hours?

 

[Gebi10000]

Tuh-Mah-toe

 

[Cavouku]

Ketchup. I don't refer to tuh-mey-tohs any other way.

What about Catsup?

I go with "ay."

 

[TylerC]

I also see missing To-Made-oh for some of our East coast cousins.

Aha, that's how I say it.

[sanomaton]

Tomaatti. =)

Well, if we're going to be all English I'd say... To-may-to

 

[HE Starwind]

Tuh mah toe.

 

[StarStruckStrumpets]

I say to-mah-toe.
I don't care either way.
Stupid dispute.
It is still the same object no matter how it is pronounced.

Well Mr. Arthur Fonzarelli, as you may or may not know, cats obey laws of gravity just like everything else. I do admit that cats can jump very well but you can't coordinate them well so the term "cats-up" or "catsup" seems an unneeded turn of phrase.

p.s. Ketchup was the first coined name for the condiment. There is no "s" or "a" in the word. Not even the respective sounds of those letters are there. Therefore: Ketchup.

/t&#601;&#712;m&#593;&#720;to&#650;/ thank you very much!

 

[Strategia]

To-mah-toe. I try to use proper English wherever possible, including spelling and pronounciation, none of that boorish "Mehricun" dialect for me.
