"Iron ion"
If the question is too silly for this forum you can move it elsewhere, but after reading about this in a linguistic forum, I would like get the answer from anyone with some Chemistry background.
How do people from England or from places with similar accent pronounce "iron ion"?. According to most dictionaries, both words are pronounced the same way. But if that is true, when you talk about an "iron ion" it must sound as if you were stuttering!. Isn't it confusing?
(As you have guessed, I'm not a native English speaker)
