Dear Jean and Interested others, >, whereas garage is considered common (Estuary >English) if pronounced garridge, but upper class if pronounced garrarje.
Garage is a most interesting word in Australia with 3 different pronunciations - none of which is garridge! In our family it was always said garr-arje, while others would say garr-arje. The upper class version is garr-arzh (with zh sounding the same as "s" in treasure).
