San Francisco or San Vrancisco

In the SF bay area, whenever people utter the word "San Francisco", that utterance doesn't become 'prominent' most of the time. In such cases, you hear 'vrancisco' instead of 'francisco'.

Similarly, if you are working for a VOIP company that sets ups voice conferences, you utterance of 'conferences' is not prominent. It sounds like 'convrences'
