Depends on how much Star Trek we’ve been watching lately.
so, always Dayta.
Applicable to many areas of my life
I pronounce it the correct way.
It’s regional. I grew up in Australia, where it’s pronounced as it is in the US: dah-tah. But I now live in the UK, where it’s pronounced day-tah.
The same is true of “router”, the network device (but not the woodworking tool): rau-tah vs roo-ter.
Working in IT made it a ballache for a while until I remembered to always change my pronunciation for them. 🙄
Lifetime New Yorker, its Day-ta (actually I hear both all the time).
I flip flop back and forth, I’m not totally sure if there’s a specific rhyme or reason to my choices, it may just come down to a subjective feeling about which I think sounds better in the sentence.
My wife is a dayta analyst, and she analyzes dahta.
Day-ta
Ditto
Dih-toe
Die-toe
That’s German and means “the toe”
Die Bart die
Dy-do
Day-tah.
I hear it pronounced dah-tah more by Brits than Americans
Day-tah
But I’m from the UK. Anything else would sound bizarre with my accent
Yes.
English: /'dɑ:tə/ ['dɑ:tʰə]~['dɑ:ʔə]. The first “a” is the same as in “father”.
Italian: /'da.ta/ ['dä:ta]. There’s only way to read the word anyway.
Portuguese: I don’t use it. There’s a native equivalent, “dados” /'da.dos/ ['dä.dos] (dado = a piece of data).
Duh-tah
Just kidding. I say day-ta. Although dah-ta slips out every so often.
Depends on the context. I have day-ta, you have dah-ta. They use dah-ta, and their conclusions are supported by the day-ta. That day-tabase holds lots of day-ta, and that dah-ta sent across the network.
If were talking about a collection of information…“datta”. If we’re talking about the worlds’ favorite android, his name sounds like “Day-tah”.
It depends on how many ay’s and ah’s are in my sentence. My mouth seems to natural conform to whatever has more as I speak at 9 million words per minute.
By itself or in short sentences, I default to day-ta, but otherwise I’m exactly the same.
I like to use the linguistic Molotov cocktail of ‘Datums’ pronounced ‘Day tums’
Depends. Do you mean the Android Day-Ta? Or you mean the Information Unit Datah.
Came here to say, one is his name, the other is not.
Still calling it “The Chat Gippity” though
