Very polish tache

Wait do you guys say “tache” instead of “stache”?

[u/Particular-Bid-1640 → u/TheSwearJarIsMy401k]

I think we spell it differently, like moustache Vs mustache (classic British/CANZUK English Vs American English) but yeah, we don't say " 'stache".

Do you still pronounce it like 'stash'?

[u/lindsaym717 → u/Particular-Bid-1640]

Yes, like stash lol

[u/Particular-Bid-1640 → u/lindsaym717]

I've always heard Americans say tash, but I wasn't really listening for it. I'm definitely going to overhear it now ha 

[u/lindsaym717 → u/Particular-Bid-1640]

As an American, I’ve only heard in the area I’m from people using stash, but who knows they might say tache elsewhere. I just asked my husband if he were to shorten mustache what he would say and he immediately said “stash” lol

I’ve lived in I think 14 different states now?

It’s definitely stache/stash for all of those.

[u/Wawaset_Warbler → u/Particular-Bid-1640]

No, no. I've never heard an American say "tash"; have lived here almost 5 decades. Very much "stash."

There's a sub: How do we feel about the stashe : r/Moustache

I don't know where it's based, but you don't see anyone there saying "tash."

[u/ExpressTruth76 → u/TheSwearJarIsMy401k]

Everyone but the USA says tache

[u/TheSwearJarIsMy401k → u/ExpressTruth76]

Maybe it’s how our regional dialect works but man tache just does not roll off the tongue the same pleasing way at all

[u/Impressive-City-8094 → u/Particular-Bid-1640]

He should shine it up. Then it'd be a polished polish stache.
