We decided to write about this topic because many people pronounce these words differently. We chose five words that are often pronounced differently by different people to ask EMS students how they say them. Here is what they thought.

The First Word is Caramel. One way to say Caramel is (Care-Ah-Mell) and the other way is (Car-Mol).

• Brennan McAllister – (Car-Mol)
