r/EnglishLearning on Reddit: "There" and "their" pronunciation difference
April 2, 2024 -
Somebody told me today that these two are homophones. You must be kidding me. I consider myself pretty well-versed in many varieties of English, but would never consider them homophones. Is "ei" in "their" really not pronounced as /eɪ/ (like ate, fame), but just as flat /ɛ/?

There, Their, and They’re are all homophones. I sort of understand what you’re saying about making your pronunciation less “flat”, but this would be considered an accent to me and different English regions would have this trait to varying degrees but most likely still uniform in their pronunciation of the three homophones. Another common set of three homophones is to, too, and two.

It's accent related. You may find southern USA people saying them differently, but the phonetics are essentially identical, and without the entire sentence or a physical acknowledgement for context, a single word is useless to us.
