@chris
First "i" like permissive, 2nd "i" like divisive, no?

@chris

Merriam-Webster has both pronunciations so choose wisely!

@MagentaRocks Blame Bernice! @bernicecbc

[chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca]

@elduvelle so confused

[elduvelle@neuromatch.social]

@chris now I'm confused too

[chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca]

@elduvelle I think I made it better! lol

[hanspetermeyer@mstdn.ca]

@chris It’s rigged. My pronunciation is losing and that can’t be right. Grrrr

[chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca]

@hanspetermeyer maybe it's regional!

[bernicecbc@newsie.social]

@chris And henceforth this issue shall be divisive no more.

[chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca]

@bernicecbc Our household was unanimously on the missive side and now I want to know WHY ya’ll talk wrongly!
