How do you pronounce "forehead"?

Question:Is the "h" pronounced in the word forehead?

Answers:
I think libralady has just stated this from assumption. Forehead was originally pronounced forrid - as in to rhyme with horrid - but over the years people pronounced it as it was read. There are no actual defining rules to English, so often if enough people use a word incorrectly, it becomes correct. This seems to happen in many cases, and is caused by English having so many different sources, so we would adopt a pronunciation from one language and adopt the spelling based on the rules of another.
