[Vocabulary] pronunciation of 'weatherman'

[LiuJing]

Do we pronounce 'weatherman' same as we do 'gentleman' with a vowel reduction? How about 'weather-man( no reduction)'? Does it sound strange?

 

[Munch]

I do not reduce the vowel in weatherman, so "weather-man" would not sound strange to me.

 

[Tdol]

I don't reduce it either. (BrE speaker)
