we learned the years of the month chant as:
30 days have September, April, June and November
All the rest have 31 except for February which has 28
But leap year coming once in four
Gives February one day more

We sang it:
Thirty days has September,
April June and November,
All the rest have thirty one,
February stays alone,
It has twenty eight days clear,
And twenty nine on each leap year.

Americans say it either way.
And either can be pronounced eye-ther or ee-ther.

In that vein, DS recently pointed out to me that the Amazon logo has an arrow from the A to the Z because they have everything you need from A to Z.

Moi je dis que les bonbons
Vales mieux que la raison |
Unlikely to the point of probably being false. Mozart, along with many of his contemporaries, used variations of this tube in their own music. We have no indication that he composed it, but we do have evidence that it predated him.

Its a rhyme rather than a song.
The last 2 lines go
"Except february alone which has 28 days clear
And 29 in a leap year"

I grew up calling it a vahz, but in Madeline it rhymes with face, so I know some people pronounce it that way.

I have an aunt in her 70s who grew up in Canada (I think Toronto) who pronounces it like that. I always assumed it was a Canadian thing.. I live in tri-state and my mother is British so I'm used to words being pronounced differently.
Any Canadians want to weigh in?!?

It's actually instead of "could've, would've, should've," which is pronounced the same as the misspelling.
