This is really what it comes down to. Regional dialects. There's a lady who comes to one of the local breweries and the pronunciation has become a running joke between us.Born in Eastern NC I guess this makes sense.
“the National Pecan Shellers Association found that “PEE-can” was the preferred pronunciation among 45 percent of Americans. The other 55 percent were split between “puh-KAHN” and “PEE-kahn”—an interesting hybrid of the two.”

I always heard Puh-Kahn growing up. Another odd one is Almond. It was always pronounced am-men similar to salmon.Born in Eastern NC I guess this makes sense.

“To harvest Almonds, you shake the ‘ell’ out of them”
Gee, can you tell where I was raised?
Now, does So-Cal start at the Glenn/Colusa line or at the Colusa/Yolo Line?
Those folks at PETA have never spent a less than worthwhile afternoon trying to round up a half crazy brahma.
That was the very last “intelligent“ cow I ever owned. I prefer Herefords. Stupid yes, but I much prefer stupid cattle. At least you can round them up. But I did have to teach one first calf heifer how to nurse. She was soooo stupid. In the meantime, milking a non-dairy cow is not for the faint of heart.
Cows are our friends? Not sure who is more stupid, that Hereford or the idiots at PETA who collect millions of dollars from even less intelligent and exceptionally gullible people
My PETA, People Eating Tasty Animals. And yes, there is always room for cow at my table, that would be a good steak, right next to the gravy and mashed potatoes.
In my experience, just about all brahmas are half crazy. Those that aren't, are 100% crazy.
That works for me! I have a friend that claims sokal starts at Cotttonwood Creek (Shasta/Tehema Line).
Uhm......everyone knows it's the Tehama line.Gee, can you tell where I was raised?
