Putin offers truce if Ukraine exits Russian-claimed areas and drops NATO bid. Kyiv calls it 'absurd'

doe'-see-eh. Maybe it's an age thing. I grew up watching Man from UNCLE, the James Bond films, Mission Impossible (the original), etc. I think maybe there is just lack of exposure.
It might be an English vs. American thing. Day-tah vs dah-tah, for a relatively simple word 'data', Homer Simpson probably would pronounce it "D'oh!-tah"...
