[English Pronunciation] Man vs. Main

Can you pronounce these two words?

The first one is man. The second one is main.

/i/ /ei/ /mein/

I once heard someone say “My man problem is …” and I was like “I don’t want to know your “man” problem. And don’t expect me to tell you my woman problem…

Then I realized that he meant “my main problem is…”
