Lol, it's still pronounced cadre though. In the SICP video lectures Sussman pronounces it as Cadre

cdr: Originally meant "Contents of Decrement portion of Register", which is what CDR actually did on the IBM 704. Pronounced "Cudder" /kUdd@r/ (as in "a cow chews its cdr"). The first syllable is pronounced like "could".

You fail phonics hard if you can't tell the difference between dre and der. First you say the cuh, then you say the der. Cudder, easy.

PROTIP: -dre and -der are the same thing. What >>3 corrects is the first part, cu- vs. ca-, read "ka" and "key" (note the separate word key is read "kee", yeah, all languages are stupid in some ways). Check dictionary.com on sabre and check the pronunciation key from the Dictionary.com Unabridged.

-dre is pronounced /dre/.
-der is pronounced /dɚ/.
I propose starting a new motors company, Cudder Motors. The slogan would be "We don't intend to sell your favourite, dream car, but we hope your other car is a cdr."

That's a pretty cool idea, too bad only 2% of the population will understand it though. In fact, I might actually take your idea, if that's okay with you? Thanks mate.

I actually invented that idea, and have already licensed it under a BSD license.

Well I am not an "cudder." You have no right to call me that if I made mistakes. This site should have some rules about harrassments, threats, and name calling. I am still in the need of more help in that regards.
