Speech & Pronunciation

male,mail,sale

Hi there,

I want to ask the correct pronunciation of the following word. I've heard some many native speakers saying the following with /e/ sound instead of /ei/, why? Is /e/ american English in the following words?

mail, sale, mail

Many Thanks

Peter

That depends on the accent of the native speaker. From my experience I can tell that people who pronounce those words like /e/ are from the UK.
