@vaporeon_ some dictionaries attest a y-less purronunciation. utterly bafflingly, the merriam-webster collegiate dictionary attests the y-less purronunciation exclusively, which is what made me make this poll

@vaporeon_ “ä” is how they transcribe the vowel in bother and cot, typically an open back unrounded vowel (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Open_back_unrounded_vowel.ogg fur sample audio, if you don’t know IPA) in contempurrary “general american” english
@aescling Merriam-Webster says "beond"?
Reported.
