Apparently I said milk wrong... I say it like "melk". Which until it was pointed out to me, I never noticed. Now when I say it wrong it just drives me nuts.
I like to pronunciate... so Tim Hortons is Tim HorTons... not Tim hor-ins...
I used to say brown with a really strong southern accent, not sure why.0 -

"What canna serp do ya'll gat?"
"Somebody caw da ammalamps"
"Gatta go to da stow and get some arnge juice and fuewt"
"I'm gon' take my chirrin home"
And the word....WAWTA..........water

I'm Canadian, which means I pronounce half my vocabulary different.
Pasta, drama, latte with the same a as SLAT, FLAT, MAT instead of Pahsta, Drahma, Lahtte
Dude, no. I'm Canadian too and it is weird as hell when you randoms say "PA-sta" "DRA-ma" and such.
I'm actually orginally from NJ, and I've worked hard to say things the way the rest of Canada does... otherwise they don't know what I'm talking about! I've **never** heard anyone here pronounce it correctly. When in Rome..0 -

I heard it alot when I was in GA. I had to hurry up and get back to Illinois. I thought if I stayed much longer..I'd end up speaking the same way..and being made fun of on
the forums..lol0 -
It bugs me when people say car-mul instead of cair-uh-mel for caramel. THERE IS AN 'A' IN THERE! PRONOUNCE IT!
And when people say "crown" instead of crayon. That's not even kind of how it's spelled. Cray-on.
There are tons of rules and exceptions in the english language that allow for BOTH pronunciations.... thats what makes it so
difficult to learn but... unless someone is purposely mispronouncing and slurring words, something like that would never bother

I say cinnamon wrong... I say it with an "m" sound so it sounds like cim a nin0

Cauliflower. Is it "Caw-li-flower" or "Caul-ee-flower"?
Also, I say "buh-ins" and "cur-ins" instead of "buttons" or "curtains".
My grandpa was Canadian, and he couldn't say "spedometer". He called it the "speed-o-meter". Which is kind of what it is anyway .0 -

I ALWAYS get made fun of for saying BAG-EL!!! My friends used to try and trick me into saying it so they could laugh at me. Booo!!!0
