You're really splitting hairs here -- putting 3 evenly spaced notes
within one beat sounds like triplets to me, no matter how it's

Yes it sounds the same, like "witch" sounds like "which" and like
4/8 sounds like 4/16 and 4/4.
Poor example, I'm afraid, and one that suggests you are not a singer.
"Which," "whoa," and other "wh" words like "where" properly start
with a phoneme produced by a puff of air blown through pursed lips.
"Witch," and "woe" and "ware" do not. The pronunciation is often
confused by young children, rap artists, and some speakers of
dialectal English. Fred Waring insisted that his singers pronounce
every sound (every phoneme) in every syllable and do so at the same
instant, to ensure that the words were clearly intelligible.
