Very & Vary

Yes.

Chiakingdom Pronunciation is different right??

Not in most regions of the U.S. where these all rhyme:

very, vary, scary, Larry, Mary, merry, carry, Jerry, airy, nary

CJ

CalifJimvery, vary, scary, Larry, Mary, merry, carry, Jerry, airy, nary

In my Southern BrE variety, we have three vowels there:

/e/ - very, merry, Jerry
/æ/ - Larry, carry
/e?/ - vary, scary, Mary, airy, nary

fivejedjonIn my Southern BrE variety

And also along the mid-Atlantic coast of the U.S., but rhotic, of course.

CJ

CalifJimrhotic, of course.

That's not really relevant in those words. With the word-final /?/, the /r/ is pronounced even in non-rhotic varieties of English.

OK. I take it back. Are you happy now?

Here are the U.S. equivalents on the mid-Atlantic coast:

/?/ - very, merry, Jerry
/æ/ - Larry, carry
/e?/ - vary, scary,

CalifJim/e?/ - vary, scary, Mary, airy, nary

Are you sure about that /e?/? That's the diphthong of say and plate in BrE.

fivejedjonAre you sure about that /e?/?

Pretty sure. It's the way I hear "Mary" in American films of the 30's, anyway. /'me? r?/ Maybe it's not quite the same nowadays in the mouths of the 'common people', but close.

Ummm, complicated, but interesting.
