[quote=@Mammalia] Oh lel Actually, no; I've heard multiple examples where augh sounded like off, including in names that ended with haugh. I realised that after I decided to blow off traditional pronunciation rules for augh at the end of the word and say aw. I wonder if it took you more than a second to realise that (since I called the third thing 2) I'm not mad, actually. *claps wildly for textual propagation of intent* [/quote] "Traditional pronunciation." Just because you've seen it more doesn't make it "traditional." I've seen it more the other way.
