How do you pronounce "king"?

There are too many people empty quoting that post who don't know the meaning of the word "diphthong".

Exactly. The Keeng pronounciation would be something along the lines of [kʰiŋ], correct?

Yep!  I mean, both pronunciations will presumably be aspirated in American English.

Of course, I just like writing it, since the distinction between voiced/ voiceless plosives in English is almost as much along aspiration as voicing.
