I always learned it as date-uh but a lot of people I know use dat-ah. To me they both sound right, but I just prefer date-uh.

Yeah, rhymes with "cat" too. Not sure why, it seems to be a regional thing, but in much smaller regions. I don't know if I heard many people in high school say it that way, but in college more people seem to. I'd love to see a more formal study on this.fantanoice wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 12:14 am Data
