The phonetic pronunciation of the letter 'h' is aitch. The dictionary spelling of the letter 'h' is aitch. Why do some people feel the need to pronounce it h'aitch?

An aitch person, why add something extra to the proper pronunciation.

I'm an 'aitch' person. Anyone who says 'h-aitch' in my presence is in line for a tongue lashing...it's one of my pet hates.
That and people who say ' was you' instead of ' were you'....grrrr!

Most definitely an "aitch" person ... but please don't get me started ... I'll want to rant about pronunciation, spelling, punctuation and grammar ... and I'm too tired!

i'm definitely an aitcher
i think people pronouce it haitch because if you are sounding out a word that begins with an h it makes the 'huh' sound e.g. house, horse, haitch!
