People from out of Wisconsin tell us we pronounce "Wisconsin" weirdly. We supposedly say WisCANsin, but we don't. Silly outsiders.

While we're discussing funny regional accents, don't forget the Boston accent. My accent isn't heavy, but I do sometimes forget to pronounce the letter, r, if it's preceded by a vowel or two. O.k. Listen up, dear Sagateers: class in session. Let's say you're pronouncing the word, charge. Ignore the r (remember, preceded by one or more vowels), and say, "chaaj" — see, it's easy! :happy:

We've outlawed the letter "r" here in (R)hode Island

I just had a funny thought: can you imagine if all of us got together in a room and started talking (with all our silly regional accents from around the U. S. and Canada)?


Nope, not quite, but almost. (Only tourists say that.)

A few years ago there was a series of threads here that a number of us were active in (@unkadug and @joanna71985 would remember this). One of the posters was pregnant with her first, so we at first planned a "virtual" shower for her, but it eventually evolved into a meetup in Philadelphia. It was great fun, and honestly everyone looked and spoke exactly as I had pictured them.

So what you're saying is you hacked their webcams?

So that's why I smelled crispy duck. I thought someone ordered take out from the thai place a block over.
