I remember Al Michaels saying something about Gusstonia one time.

Norfolk anyone?

And only in the south have they substituted a "k" for the "h" in the word "shrimp," opting for the truly southern variation "skrimp."

 

Addressing a group of people with the salutation, "you'ins."

 

...and I won't even try to tell you how many different pronunciations I've heard for "aluminum."

 

Why is beef, chicken and pork all lumped into a single adjective "barbeque" once it's been cooked with BBQ sauce? It's still beef, chicken and pork, right? "I'm gonna get some barbeque."

"What kind of barbeque?"

"Oh, just a sandwich..."

"No, I mean, what kind of protein? Beef, pork, chicken?"

 

And why doesn't anyone add barbeque fish to the list? Oh, that's right, it's  lot healthier than pork or beef...

I've heard people substitute a k in wal-mart (mal-mark) and spigot (spicket) but I've never heard skrimp.

Or you'ins. I've heard y'uns, but not for years

It's Whis-tah by the way. I grew up 45 minutes away. They have their own Bostonish dialect, like the Tennessee accent vs the more generic southern accent.

 

Last time I was there, everyone pronounced it Wha-ster, with the "wha" pronounced like it is in the word "what"

[cookinwithgas]

Hmmm never heard it like that.
