I say;
crick
ooool (oil)
wuter (water)
I think that's all I say weird.

I have never said "whataburger" out loud. As a matter of fact, i think that's the first time i've ever typed it, too! :)

I say wootah instead of water, clawset instead of closet.
My aunt says "mootzarella" (in this case, moot rhymes with book) instead of "motzarella" (mozzarella). |

My in-laws insist on calling Loyola - li - o - la instead of loy-o-la and Joliet jolly-et instead of jo-le-et.

The big Senior VP of my office says "i-deers" for "ideas".
It grates like steel fingertips on a chalkboard. Must be a New Yahwker thing. |

I say "roof" with the oo pronounced like in "book", while she says it with the oo pronounced like in "moo". I also say "Aunt" like ant, not awnt. "Route" I will pronounce both ways with no discernible pattern as to which one I use. I either say "root" or "rowt"...no idea why |

I say also like 'elso' instead of 'all-so'. I never thought it was that weird, but one of my friends thinks it's hilarious.

When talking college football, specifically about that big Catholic school, I'll generally cringe and say 'No-ter Daim' like most everyone else
generally says it, because you get looked at strangely if you say it correctly ('Note-ruh Dahm').
A friend of mine at a place where I used to work pronounces 'similar' as 'sim-u-ler', similar to the way that DWumbass pronounces 'nuclear' as 'nuke-u-ler'. Both mispronunciations drive me nuts. I'll say vegetable as four syllables, 'veg-uh-tuh-bull', as opposed to the more common 3-syllable 'veg-ta-bull' pronunciation. |
