Default Re: 1 million versus 1 billion

Its like the age old feud on BBC how to pronounce Shrewsbury, some say Shrowsbury, I just say 'well how do you pronounce Shrew ( the furry little mammal with the long nose) is it a Shrow ? Some Shruesbury ( more like it) and the locals just say Shoesbry.

It is like scon or scone, if you say scon you should also stay ston instead of stone, no wonder English language is so hard to foreigners to grasp, although most do speak it better than wot we do.
