QUOTE(pandamonium @ May 7 2006, 1:15 AM)  the other words that are mispronounced to me are: coupon - q-pon water - wa-der and common nicknames i never heard of: sprinkles (like on ice cream) - jimmies slippers - flip flops lolipop - taffy ? lol yea i heard of all of those when i moved down south kay. I dont know what the hell a jummies is. but slippers and flip flops arent the same thing. Slippers slip onto your feet and have closed toes, flip flops are foot thongs. But I've heard of people calling all shoes that slap your feet when you step flip flops because well..they flops. But yeah. Technically flip flops are foot thongs..And a lollipop is not the same as taffy. taffy is this weird chewy hard stuff that always gets stuck in your teeth that you buy from the fair that is pure sugar that they stretch out add air too and you get this weird sticky messy concostion. A lilli pop is something on a stick. Usually hard, but not a rule. For example, a tootsie pop, a jolly rancher lollipop, or a blow pop. Oh, and its not cue-pon, its coo-pon. Therefore spelled coupon. Its spelled correctly for its proper pronounciation. and water? I say it just like i would say footer. I dont say fooT Err, I say footer. the emphasis is on the first syllable there for making it sound like a d, but really say the word wider and listen to the d sound, its different. single ts and single ds are similer in sound of course, but you wouldnt say WaTERRR. sounds stupid. :D And its CARA-MELLE people. either car-ah or care-ah, but theres an a there. Theres no silent a in the english language that I've ever heard of. Stop saying wrong. there is a Car Mul street and i think theres a Car Mul city in louisiana as well, but they are spelled with out the a. |
