I had a friend in college who pronounced them "beg-els" and it was super frustrating.
Cousin's wife is from Minnesota and says that. It's her ridiculous midwest accent that is to blame.
This person was from Florida!
Is this like a speech impediment thing? Isn't that "Warshington" too? Or is that regionalized?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Is that a speech impediment ? What about liberry or jagwire ? Is that what those are?
