Yes? "Day" is not pronounced "dee" AFAIK.

When I say "day" or "today" I pronounce it fully, but when saying the names in conversation, it's more like "I'll see you Tuesdy at noon."

Judging by reactions, it's just, maybe SoCal? Or maybe just me.

I'm not sure which section of SoCal you're referring to, but SD's about as South as one can get before TJ and everyone here seems to pronounce it "tūzdā" not "tūzdi". 😅🤷🏽‍♂️

I think a lot of Brits pronounce it that way
