OKAY or OKEY

Good evening! Recently my collegue told me that nowdays in England people say "OKAY" instead of "OKEY", I mean the pronunciation of the word OK. Is it so? |

You know, Ed, they actually have sound in the dictionary I �ve mentioned. The reason why I gave the link to okey-doke was because it �s quite popular, isn �t it? Sophia |

Sorry Sophia I didn �t know it was a talking dictionary. I believe that kids might say okey dokey but even then. I don �t think I personally have heard any kids use the phrase. The only adult I �ve ever heard say it was Hannibal Lecter. ;-) Ed |
