Do you pronounce the T in Christmas?

Anonymous
My spouse, a former Catholic, said this as if obviously true and that I should know it. I grew up on the church as a Presbyterian, but I don’t think I know a single person who pronounces the T. It’s silent, right?

Yes, it is silent. And your husband is weird.

Lawyer up, hit the gym etc.

I do. Lightly but it's there for me.

Only when teaching my kid how to spell it.

I'm from the UK. You don't pronounce the "t" unless you're trying to hide a very, very working class, aka East End of London accent and trying to sound posh.

Mary is pronounced Ma-ry

Correct is: Mare-e Chris-muss.

Maybe it's regional like car-a-mel and car-mel

I like to say fokeen Kreesmas, like Melania. That was maybe the most (or only) endearing moment in her time at the white house because I get how overwhelming holidays are.
