What's a regional pronunciation of a word that seems normal to you but is weird to people from other parts of the country? (lemmings.world)

Here "bus" is pronounced like "buzz" and I didn't realise it was weird until I went down to Devon and it was a dead giveaway that I'm a Brummie lol

    Fellow member of the zed crowd!! When someone says "zee" to mean zed it often sounds like they're saying the letter c lol

    wait that's supposed to rhyme with the Z? It rhymes with the 'me' so it seems like it doesn't need to rhyme with the Z
