That said, I asked sniper.

No, as in daft or batch.
There is no 'a', or even an 'a' sound, in "dog".Cheez wrote:

Daw. Dawg. It's a very long A sound. Same sound as father, which would have been a better word but I didn't think of it then.Cheez wrote:

Maybe I'm the only one that's heard it said "Daw-tuh."
For clarity - Sata, Data, Satellite.

Father, yes, but dog?Dog is way lower and more of an O sound than father.Defiance wrote:

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Perhaps it's a regional thing, but the Daw/Faw sound is exactly the same, said the same by everyone I know.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

Either way, I'll be a bit more careful next time for the folks that get hung up on the literal.
