Okay, so it's optional. I like the t. It's a lot better than the L in sal-mon.

Pronunciation note
Often was pronounced with a t -sound until the 17th century, when a pronunciation without the  [t] Show IPA came to predominate in the speech of the educated, in both North America and Great Britain, and the earlier pronunciation fell into disfavor. Common use of a spelling pronunciation has since restored the  [t] for many speakers, and today  [aw-fuhn] and  [awf-tuhn] [or  [of-uhn] and  [of-tuhn]] exist side by side. Although it is still sometimes criticized, often with a [t] is now so widely heard from educated speakers that it has become fully standard once again.

It appears the pendulum is swinging our way, broseph. Better get back on the right side of the momentum :wink2:

I actually don't think I use the t. But I always assumed I was doing it wrong.
