I think US citizens say 'Hedge-emony' while the british say 'Hegeh-emony'. At least that's what google thinks lol.
I'm American and literally never heard it pronounced hegehmony. Always hedge.
Yep, so that corroborates my comment. If you know someone british they may speak hegehmony.
That feels so unnatural!
I don't encounter it often but I seem to be thinking I've mostly heard it in the states as, "Huh-jemmuny"
