    Succinct comment, and absolutely correct. Just because a pronunciation might be prevalent doesn't make it somehow correct. I'm from U.K., and many get pronunciation things wrong, like "bofe" for both, or "bu'er" for butter. Winner is the person coming first; winter is the season before spring. Easy! Clarity!
