“Kinetic” with a hard “T” like posh Brit is saying it to the queen? Everyone I’ve ever heard speaking US English pronounces it with a rolled “t” like “kinedic” so the alternate pronunciation still reads like it’d have a “d” sound
This phenomenon is called “T flapping” and it is common in North American English. I got into an argument with my dad who insisted he pronounces the T’s in ‘butter’ when his dialect, like nearly all North Americans pronounces the word as ‘budder’.
That’s how I’ve always heard it pronounced on the rare occasions anybody ever mentions it. But I’ve never been to that part of the US so maybe the accents different there?
Every American I know does pronounce it like Connedicut 🤔
Really? Everyone I know calls it kinetic-cut. But I group up in new england.
