Hi British English speakers,
From some dictionary of pronounciation, the 'a' sound in
Alan, calendar, Daniel, etc, should be pronounced the same as 'a' in
man,
cat, pat, fat, etc.
But in reality, a lot of British people will pronounce 'a' in
Alan, calendar, Daniel, etc in the same way as 'a' in
ask, task, etc
. Is it true?
Tks
