Talk:wotcher

How might one pronounce this word?

-Tyler Spilker, Spilk@spilky.com-

I always imagined it rhymed with gotcha.

-Danack@basereality.com- Pronounced very similarly to gotcha. I added the correct pronuncation and removed the comment about it being pronounced with a J as that was incorrect.

Etymology 1
Is this etymology reliable? I also recall seeing "wotcher" as a greeting explained as derived from "wotcher been up to" ("what have you been up to"). - Fyrius 10:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's correct. "What cheer" is still used in Geordie (often with localised dialect spelling, such as "wot cheor"). See also What Cheer, Iowa. -Stelio (talk) 12:39, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
