Out here in Southern California, most of us pronounce “marry,” “merry” and “Mary” exactly the same, and the same goes for “cot” and “caught.” “Any” rhymes with “tinny,” “end” rhymes with “Sindh,” and “anti-” as in “anti-Bolshevik” is pronounced “ant eye.”

I'm from Pittsburgh and think it's funny that you just expect people to know how to pronounce "Sindh."
