Well, my friend, my guess is that "Fridge" is pronounced like those of us from Chicago would say it.... Da Bears, Da Cub, Da Fridge.
In a sentence - Hay, Marge, grab me 'nother beer from da fridge, I'm thirsty"
Without the d, it's pronounced "Frige", a french accent , like fri-shay"
Sentence again -Willie, my dear, please fetch me another merlot from the frige
Good one, Ralphy, keep 'em coming
