Why do so many people these days pronounce the letter H as Haytch.
It is AITCH. You do not make an H sound at the beginning.
This is particularly noticeable on the news when people keep commenting on the proposed HS2 rail link.
Does it annoy others or is it just me?

Actually, it is not AITCH, it is AICH
And, to answer your question, it is simply a matter of regional accents.

It's just you, mate. Words beginning with the letter 'h' ARE actually pronounced with a 'h' sound.
