Hi All,
I always listen English Radio programme, sometimes I hear the native speakers would pronounce the word "Eleven" which has two different pronunciations in the first syllable. In phonetics symbol, the first pronunciation I hear is /i ˈlev ən/ another one is /ə ˈlev ən/. I wanted to know which pronunciation is more popular in the English word. Please advise!
