 I suggest you never watch the BBC, CNN, Xinghua, or any other news outlet/news 
channel where people speak with an accent.   (though isn't paleontology exactly 
the wrong profession for you?  after all, lots of people say the fossils' names 
differently)

 it is NOT slang.  I keep saying that this is how it sounds to my ear.
