Hello everybody! I have a question about pronunciation of the word "crêpe". As far as I'm concerned, this word has a few different meanings, and as Oxford Learner's Dictionary gives it in the first and the second meanings (1. a type of light thin cloth, made especially from cotton or silk, with a surface that is covered in lines and folds; 2. a type of strong rubber with a rough surface, used for making the soles of shoes) it is pronounced as /kreɪp/, but if we talk about 'a thin pancake' it is pronounced as /krep/. However, recently I've heard some natives say it like /kreɪp/ referring to the type of pancakes. Could anybody say from their own experience, how this word is really pronounced in their region of the US or the UK, and if the dictionary gives it correctly? I will appreciate your help!
