How do you pronounce the "ques" part of "question" ?
Damn, getting some hate for this post. Thanks, I guess. Lemme rephrase this post title, since this is the part I was curious about in the beginning anyway til everyone fixated on the "tion" and ignored the original ask altogether.

Yeah, I wrote it like "tin" since you're probably a mutant if you say it like "tee on"
edit: Imma leave this comment here so people can still downvote it ig
I've never met anyone who says tin.
its all ive ever heard it.
I mostly hear 'tin' from women who tend to lisp slightly on the "kwess" and it literally comes out sounding like "kwess-tin." I hear this all the time IRL and on TV. I was hoping to find out if other people notice this or not, but damn, y'all hyper fixated on me writing "tin." Anyway, it has always seemed odd to me since the way I say it does sound closer to kwesh-tin, kwess-chin, or kwess-chun.
If everyone focused on that then it's a you problem. Also, use IPA, it's easier to understand.
