I pronounce those three words differently. I'm shocked that everyone doesn't. I'm from New York, so my way must be correct.
Mary rhymes with hairy. Marry rhymes with carry. Merry rhymes with berry.
However they pronounce it elsewhere is wrong. Dammit.

Those three words all rhyme with each other!
I know so many people from that area. It's blowing my mind that I can't hear the differences.

You're kidding, right? You genuinely believe all three words rhyme?

I can't even imagine them being pronounced differently.
I'll have to ask my mom when I see her later today.
