Ither or Eether???

[The Mayor]

How do you pronounce either

 

[SwedishMeatball]

Eether. What's the biggest state??

 

[Blondie]

With a long e as opposed to a long i.

Eether not Eye-ther.

 

[helenabear]

the correct way eye-thur

I'm more used to that with German than eeee-thur.

 

[The Mayor]

Eether. What's the biggest state??

Australia

 

[The Mayor]

I pronounce it Ither...forgot to say that in my OP.

 

[poohandwendy]

I use both...I like to add to confusion that way.

 

[SwedishMeatball]

I pronounce it Ither...forgot to say that in my OP.

Ok, I shouldn't admit this but I read it initially as ither with a short i and I thought you were just acting ********.

 

[ashjohnson80]

What about Esther?

 

[zippeedee]

Neether Neyether Let's call the whole thing off!

 

[hlbtimes2]

Both are correct. I say it both ways depending on the conversation.

 

[TheGoofster]

normaly EEEEEther, but on ocassion IIIIITher.
But I suppose that EEEther way you say it can be correct, becasue IIIther one is not that bad.

 

[Rafiki Rafiki Rafiki]

You pop 'em on the head, I'll skin 'em...

And we haven't any ether, either..."

 

[GeorgeG]

Does it really matter? I actually had to think about this one, but I think I usually say eether. I was wondering if it was a regional thing, but my daughter says ither.
