I don't think the Americans should be allowed to comment on the way we speak/write considering they can't spell several words properly anyway :roll:

If we're going to rant about how American pronounce things then it annoys me when they say Route and Via wrong. :p

You say Zed, I say Zee.

Again I can't say much because I still can't say other words correctly. See melk.

Also, didn't Ian make a video of pronunciations?

Like "Set", I think.

I would probably say that when speaking English as well.

I thought Zee was american for Zed, but I sometimes sing Zee when I do my vocal warm ups, but that's only because it rhymes with Vee, but any other instance it's double you, ex, why, zed. :lol:

Obviously "zed" as I'm English.

And if any members of the All Saints are reading this - you can't change your mind on pronouncing Z to fit your lyrics. I don't care for "artistic license", you're not setting a good example to the kids and annoying uptight people like me.

^ He speaks the truth! (On the second sentence)

I'd like to see a video of someone saying the alphabet with "zed" instead of "zee." I've seriously never heard it that way before.

(Although, being Kiwi's.... they were actually more commonly known as "Zid". They have the dubious honour of being the first gig I went to without my parents)
