That thar is cause ya'll has a accent, an we'ins don't!

Actualy we do use the word both ways. I use the word pronounced with the the both "E"s as a short "E"s, while you use it with the first "E" as a long "E" or ("EE") and the second "E" as a short "E".

It is amazing how many dialects there are in the English language. There are several in the UK, and several in North America, but still we all understand each other's words! In the hunting fields we understand each other better than some our own people who don't understand hunting at all.
