Honestly I've never heard anyone pronounce it like that, more like "fah-eater".

Wow fair enough, I've heard so many do it. Obviously I don't know your background but I think maybe it's because I grew up and have spent a fair bit of my adult life in the northern countryside? The non-White English demographic round my home region is very low. And I've never met a Spaniard or Latin person around there either, I'm pretty sure. Just a theory, anyways

I should make clear by the way that I didn't think every person from the UK does this. I realise it might have come across that way now
