Question to you all.....

[super-bee_ski]

Why do a certain RACE in America, and yes, America only, pronounce the word ASK as AKS?

And yet, no one corrects them?

It's related to 98 cent. As opposed to 98 centS. And i think, fittin - fixing. But gosh this takes all my, STREMPF.

They pronounce and often spell it - axe. Didn’t you know there is a “dialect” that’s attributed to them in English that sanctions all these b.s. pronunciations and spellings. Attribute this to the left wing liberals ....

 

[vintage chromoly]

Strap on some balls and start correcting them.

Report back with your results.

Passing them thru Indoctrination Ebonics {?} possibly

Or just update spell checker.

In some states that I have lived they have difficulty pronouncing the word "wolf". They pronounce it "woof". It's not ignorance of the difference...they know the difference. They just can't pronounce the "l" in wolf.

I have found "spellcheckers" to be lagging behind in their task.
The new language and words --speed ahead of those in cubicles that make a living from helping us all remain current of what is "correct"
BTW--I used it three times generating this post.---Edit that to be four times.

Sometimes I stumble with the meaning and application of the word--it--(for example).

This could be important in the right situation.

That's like useing Question to "you all"..... Instead of "everyone". It depends on what part of the country you are from.

Yep, and my grandfather used to stop at Rest AreaR's on the highway.... and my aunt eats clam CHOWDA.... and in the South, all of you are ya'all....and on the West Coast, you are all dudes.

And in the right spots in the midwest dudes maybe something else. And are crackers really crackers?

 

[ws23jrt]

My son used to say---"dude"/man"-- a lot.
Whenever I said the same words back to him he became pissed and recoiled in anger.--(my learning).
Today I can say "dude-man" to him and we smile with an understanding that I wish we had at the time.
