Help[Opinions] Re: Megan pronunciation/ “brics tegan”
in reply to a message by Tiggs
For me "peg leg" is the same vowel, both like beg and dregs.
How do you say bag? For me the "a" rhymes with the a in apple, but my mom is from Minnesota and she says bag to rhyme with plague.
Also lag... for me it's like apple, but for my mom it would be "layg". If you say "the one with short legs lags behind", does it sound the same?

For me, “bag” is also a short “a” sound like “apple”. Bag, lag, sag, hag - all rhyme. “Legs” sounds like a long “a” as in “plagues”, so “short legs lags behind” rhymes with “short plagues sags behind”.
