What I hate is when people without an accent (Midwestern U.S) don't pronounce the h at the beginning of words when they're supposed to. It's huge, not yuge. Human, not yuman.
Pronounce the aych like you're supposed, you big dumb.

Lmao. Can't say I've come across anyone in my lifetime so far that's pronounced an "H" like that to me.
That would be a bit odd I'd imagine.
Trump does it all the time.
trump is an absolute prick. wig wearing bastard
I never paid attention to it much then.
That he is. Although with the amount of money he has, you'd think he could afford a hairpiece that looked like hair, and not the ass of a muskrat.
He's really fucking ugly. That's as much of an opinion as I'll ever have.
That and I just feel like everything he does say and that I do hear is really, really irritating.
Like that shit about Obama's birth certificate. I just wanted him to stfu.

Well, the whole birther crap has been ridiculous from the start. Especially considering Teabaggers pride themselves on being constitutionalists. They should, you know, actually understand how the Constitution works if they want to create a valid argument.
But for Trump to unbury it after 2 years makes him look like the opportunistic gloryhound he is.

I suppose that when people pronounce it as 'aych' it can make more sense when regarding that we're supposed to say 'an' in front of certain words beginning with H (an historian etc). Perhaps because in speech it can sound as if you're just starting with a vowel.
It can be complicated in speech to say HISTorian rather than ISTorian with an 'an' in front of it whereas with the latter it flows more easily.
That said, I'd always been taught / have thought of H as haych. Aych sounds like a badger chewing a mushroom.
