> There's no "wrong" enunciation in linguistics though. Yes there is. If a linguist a century from now claims that English speakers in 2021 pronounced "car" the same way they pronounced "book", they would be wrong. Similarly, if they looked at one 2chainz song and concluded that in spoken word "pyjama" and "lasagna" rhymed, that would be wrong. Less obviously so, but wrong nonetheless. The absence of a singular correct pronunciation doesn't diminish the infinite number of incorrect ones. Even the most ardent of descriptivists think that accepting a pronunciation based off of a single occurrence is somewhat taking the piss.
