Would that be pronounced /the'aiter/ like in creator, or /'thearter/ like it should be? Artsy Americans wanting old world culture should accept our spilling too
Well, in Alabama, lots of us would pronounce it like "creator," but that would be more like /'thE-'A-t&r/, with a practically equal stress on the first two syllables, but standard American pronunciation is /'thE-&-t&r/.
