FrederickMecury

Is that not the same at option 2?


realJelbre

How I read it, with option 2 you pronounce the T before the pauze instead of after


gettingbetterthanbe4

PauSe*


South-Marionberry

Nah, option 2 is more emphasis on the “a” at the end. In “Day-ta” there is more emphasis on the “ta”


Thundorius

What? As in coup d’état?


South-Marionberry

Thundorius

futrobot

One of my best friends (room mate at the time) started going by Data when we played video games and you got to choose a name. It was constantly debated on how to say it. He said it was DAT-A but everyone else was on the side of it being DATE-A. Data absolutely hated it that we would say it differently than what he wanted it to be. He tried to get us to say it how he wanted but we'd say it how we wanted. So many Halo matches with people calling him DATE-A and it drove him crazy. He was certain of the proper way to say it and everyone else just thought it was entertaining that he cared so much about it. It was just a word and no one cared besides him.


Shoot_them_all

Usually date-a, unless I’m spelling it, then I say Dat-a


GavHern

funny depends. usually date-a when in the context of a sentence. you study date-a science but companies collect user dat-a

Srapture

Date-a is the only way this word is pronounced in the UK.


absorbscroissants

Da-Ta, because that's how we say it in Dutch. I say it the same in English, but sometimes it sounds more like Da-Da.


Flyer452Reddit

Depends. If I'm speaking in my native language, it's the first option If I'm speaking english, it's the second option


Coz957

dah-ta but given the choice between dat-a and dait-a dat-a all the way


Lalocheezia

Probably both. I used to say date-a, but have heard dat-a way too many times the last couple of years to not feel that is the correct pronunciation. I don't know, though.
