  • Do you sometimes wonder whether 'data' should be pronounced as dEYta or dAta? It could be the data we gather in the course of research or the one we buy from telecoms firms for internet purposes. Well,

The article from MSN discusses four English words that can be pronounced in two different ways, focusing on the word "data" among others. It explains that "data" can be pronounced as either "DAY-tuh" or "DAH-tuh," with the former being more common in American English and the latter in British English. The article also touches on the historical and linguistic reasons behind these variations, noting that the pronunciation can depend on regional accents, the context in which the word is used, or even personal preference. Additionally, it briefly mentions other words like "either," "neither," and "route," which also have dual pronunciations, illustrating the complexity and flexibility of the English language.
