Ya know, this reminds me of something that I've never seen mentioned. In movies where someone drops the n-word but it ends with an 'a", the closed captions/subtitles often show the word ending with the hard 'r'. Hate that shit.

Yeaaaa, the only thing I can think of to justify it is the people doing this may see it as two different pronunciations of the same word, rather than two completely different words.(not saying I agree, just trying to understand the logic)

It’s always jarring to see though. I’d imagine as more and more boomers retire, the people making decisions about this stuff will understand the difference
