Well from my understanding, because it only has one 'T' it should be pronounced 'day-ta'

Americans say it like it's "datta" idk man, blame America for the confusion.

I was told in a math class once that data pronounced day-tuh is for a single point.

Data like dah as in like DaDa what babies would call a dad - that data is for multiple data points.


Who knows and gives a damn really lol.

I feel like I pronounce it both ways depending on the way I use it in a sentence.
