Is this just a silly British thing?

Well, in Britain we don't really say pwned, so when I saw it here I naturally thought it was an American thing, but I thought it was pronounced "pawned" not "poned" ahaha I only found out when watching a very potter sequel.

I thought it was 'pawned' but most British and Americans do pronounce things differently, like in Britain most of us say 'Tomato' as "Tomarto" and if I've watched enough American TV, they pronounce it as "Tomaito"? :) ♥
