Saturday or "Sat-Day" ?

...Ok-today I am hearing people twice my age...maybe more saying..."Sat-Day"WTF!?...Is it just australia's slang out of control-or is this laziness in pronouniation becoming a sign of ignorance around the world?...here is a conversation at my old work that proved how dumb people are...Friend-So what are you doing Sat-Day?Me-Not doing anything on "SatURday".Friend-WHat's with your voice-got a lisp or something?Me-No that is how it's spelt and pronouncedFriend-Nah your kidding-I learnt that from my mum!Me-I learnt mine off school-how do you spell it?*Friend writes "Sat-Day"[me=mds64]writes "SatURday"[/me]...Friend-you spell it the dork way![me=mds64]facepalms[/me]Me-...this is why I don't do anything on Sat-Day-it doesn't exist-periodFriend-Ok fine then-HAY GUYS WHAT'S EVERYONE DOING?[me=mds64]listens to conversation about what everyone's doing on "sat-day"-it seems everyone young and old say it this way[/me]...It bugs me alot-even my managers at my current job and some staff-who are double my age...or even close to 50 are saying it this way.What bugs me more-I have a speech impediment (no...not a stutter...word pronounciation) and yet I say this-and now many other words perfectly-yet these normal people screw it up!So...How do you say it?

Saturday, that is what my mom and teacher taught me....

I always say Saturday.
But I can see why people say Satday.

When you read it really fast,the UR sounds a little silence.
So I guess thats why they thought its Satday?

pffft I say
SAMEDIand saying Satday can confuse you with Sunday

I've never heard someone say Satday, only Saturday. Saying Satday just seems silly to me.

It feels like I pronounce Saturday = SaTerDay.. OoO

I knew there would be one-hence the option ;D

Maybe the Sat-Day pronounciation only on some Hip-hop song..
ask Them! ;D

Screw you guys Saturdays don't exist. Sundays are so amazing that they engorged and absorbed whatever day was before it to create Sunday part 1 and 2.

I heard mostly kids saying it...now it's people older than me :(Hence why I'm disturbed...

I've never heard anyone around here say Satday before.
And if I heard someone say it I'd be so sad :|
