    One of these is a puh Khan, the other is a pee can. If you can't figure it out, gtfo

    I’ve mentioned this before......my folks raised pecans commercially.

    Being an amateur botanist, my mom & dad suggested I attend a few Texas Pecan Growers Association meetings and take pecan orchard management courses at A&M Ag (so he could use me as free slave labor-he thought he was slick) The end result being I heard the word pronounced by academics, botanists, and people from around the US and Mexico.

    Smart people/Western US/Texas/Cajun - puh cahn

    Hillbillys/East Coast/Georgia/Bama/Sippi - pee can

    Mexico - Mescan

    Regarding the amateur botanist thing, I walked into my grandfathers greenhouse when I was a little kid and was smitten by the orchids, bromeliads, succulents, and staghorn ferns that he grew. Been a hobbyist off and on ever since.

    I've always heard it and called it puh khan. Except for the Yankees who call it pee can. I've also heard them say peekin.
