I am from the same part of Ireland as him so this isnt coming
from any cultural accent bias. He just pronounces the word incorrectly.

Please correct this.
I've tried to work out why it drives me crazy but without success. I have no problem with Americans using their own pronounciation of the words, just when non-Americans do it. I'm probably just getting old and crabby.
