Apologies if this has already been mentioned upthread, but I have to say it again with the current lack of HGV drivers - FFS, it's pronounced 'aitch', not 'haitch' - one of my biggest bugbears 😖 However, I could be in the minority as it seems to be more acceptable these days.

Good to know I am not alone. I'm not even sure if it is an age thing as too many people of my age - 50's, still say haitch.

I keep shouting at the radio and TV when I hear this. Even worse, some of the presenters are the ones mispronouncing the letter.

I always thought it was more regional, area-based. I really don’t like it either ( which I pronounce eye-ther, not eeee-ther), but have learned to tolerate it, like I do for eeether and neeeether!
