Here "bus" is pronounced like "buzz" and I didn't realise it was weird until I went down to Devon and it was a dead giveaway that I'm a Brummie lol

Fellow member of the zed crowd!! When someone says "zee" to mean zed it often sounds like they're saying the letter c lol

Everyone knows the song goes "ex, why, zed. Now I know my ABCs, next time won't you sing with med"

The song was written by an American so understandable that they'd do it with the wrong pronunciation.

wait that's supposed to rhyme with the Z? It rhymes with the 'me' so it seems like it doesn't need to rhyme with the Z

I said I know my ABCs, I didn't say I know how to structure children's songs. Next you're going to expect me to be able to work AND be sober at the same time, SHEESH!
