OK so tomay-to tomar-to
Same word, different ways to say…
I am watching a cookery show and the chef was talking about a heady smell..
Heddy…
Now I like to say heedy…
Heddy or heedy?
What’s your take?
(Gosh this English language is so complex… No wonder kids find it hard to learn to read!)

I checked with my wife, who is a professional editor, (no she never touches my blog) and the correct word is ‘heady’. It’s a reference to the smell being so strong that your head can’t smell anything else. Hopefully it’s a good smell! 🙂

I’m starting to think this a job requirement in marriages. “one of you will constantly correct the other…whether they want it or not.” 😉

Yes, head-y…and yes, the English language is difficult…there are some areas in the USA where I can;t even understand what they are saying and I was born and raised here!

I would go with “Heady”, but none of them really LOOK right if you know what I mean!
