[Opinions] Re: Anastasia
One of my aunts used to say vahz, and tried to get me to say it too. But I wouldn't. Couldn't, really. This was early in my teens, and I was sure, still am, that I'm not a person who says Vahz.
She also wanted me to say "ahmond", for almond. I have looked that up, and seems either is acceptable. She was a very nice person, not pretentious really.Vase, at least, is not a word that comes up often, unless you are a florist.

I read once, I think it was Miss Manners, that you should only say vahz if you plan on putting dahzies in it.

Vahz is the British English pronunciation!
