I like to hear how different people say different things. I had a professor in college who said "advertisements" (ad-ver-tize-mints lol) as "advert-is-mints". Never heard it that way, but I think Judge Judy says it that way too.
Another one is "Appalachian". It's app-uh-latch-in, people. Not "app-uh-lay-shun".
Any other words that you may say differently?
Um... I'll have to think about it.
Oatmeal-is oak meal around here. Lol.
Milk. meal, mail, pale, sale, jail, rail, hail, fail...well you get the picture.
are all words I can't say right. I was deaf for 2 yrs when I was around 6. I didn't get certain tones back. I swear for the life of me I'm saying it like everyone else, but nope. DH and all the kids make fun of me. :(
DH can't say Wolf. He barks like a dog. He can't say stolen...he says stoden.
Oh, and DH and his dad say ORtopsy instead of autopsy. His dad was a cop! LOL.
I have to really listen when I say milk. Dh says it sounds like melk.
