I think this is just southern slang?? Or slang in general? I wouldn't necessarily say it's American vernacular to pronounce it like that. You have another video advising people not to say the "t" in "certain" and other words, proper English should always be encouraged. I disagree with lowering standards in pronounciation.
@@mn3io I've lived in Ohio, Florida, and Utah. I can't recall the last time I heard ANYONE pronounce it "off-ten" The reason I'd remember it is because I consider this pronunciation as being one that indicates "arrogance."
I guess the one who made English was high on drugs, I mean why the hell would anyone sober put these letters in words when you don't even want to pronounce them?!
As a native English speaker saying certain and fountain the way you say would make it sound like you're from the south. Honestly, any of these either way and no one will give any weird looks, I pronounce the t in a lot of theses words too.
Very funny to watch for anybody of the entirety of the rest of the World who speak English as a second or third language, or the British. What counts is to get the message through. IMO, the displayed prononciation makes it harder, so I'd rather pick an imperfect Indian or French accent over it. That is just me ;-)
