Our title above had been purposely misspelt by omiting the first letter of the word 'herb' with an intention to grab better attention and to grab more readings done; since the word (Herb) may be pronounced with or without the 'H" sound being uttered, for instance an Herb store or a herb store.
The same are words like herbaceous, herbicide, herbivore, and herbal in medicine too!
Can we also assume that ALL Americans pronounce it an 'erb', h-less-ly?
Of interest is the debated question: If variety is is the spice of life, what's the herb? Also, is banana a herb or fruit?
