GET TO THE CHOPPER should be GET TO THE CHOPPA
I think this issue should be discussed more thoroughly. E.g. from google search:
"get to the chopper" = 5,400,000 results "get to the choppa" = 3,140,000 results
oh come on, everyone knows it's get to the choppa! Listen to what he sounds like!
@asqui - there still hasn't been a 0.0000000000001 release yet. There certainly is freedom to change the syntax now. Do you have a production application running on ArnoldC that may break because of this?
Get to the Choppa will actually force everyone to say it in Arnie's way...whereas Get to the Chopper is too mainstream !

I'm not too eager to break the backward compatibility given the change gives no "real" value.

@lhartikk The entire "real value" of this programming language is it's homage to Arnold. It's not only about what Arnold said in his films, but how he said it. Hence, dictation must be taken into account. As @abhaybhegde stated, it would force the user to say it like Arnold.
Couldn't agree more.

As far as I can tell, more people are searching for "get to the choppa".
As well as autofill

Although Arnold Schwarzenegger does pronounce it "get to the choppa", I agree with @lhartikk that reverse compatibility shouldn't be broken.
@LoadingPleaseWait Perhaps we could support both? It would fix the backwards compatability and still allow people to type what Arnold says.
Compromise FTW!
@FracturedRetina Do you know of somebody with a production app using ArnoldC?
