Central New Yorkers: How Do You Pronounce ‘Elementary’? [POLL]

Central New Yorkers: How Do You Pronounce ‘Elementary’? [POLL]

Jumpin' Zach Flash, 96.1 WODZ

So far, I've asked Central New Yorkers how they pronounce creek and roof. Today, I have another question. How do you pronounce elementary, as in elementary school? Is it elemen-TREE or elemen-TARY? 

I will say, I'm pretty sure I know that elemen-TARY will win. I hear it all the time. I have searched dictionaries on the web, and none of them have the Central New York pronunciation of elemen-TARY.

So, let's see if I'm right. I want to see which pronunciation is most common among Central New Yorkers. I'll post the results of the poll next week. Make sure to share this story on your favorite social media website so we can get a lot of people voting.

So, again, is it elemen-TREE or elemen-TARY?
