Hi Mamma X

[VillageVicar]

You say eether and I say eyether,
You say neether and I say nyther;
Eether, eyether, neether, nyther,
Let's call the whole thing off!
You like potato and I like potahto,
You like tomato and I like tomahto;
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!
But oh! If we call the whole thing off,
Then we must part.
And oh! If we ever part,
Then that might break my heart!
So, if you like pajamas and I like pajahmas,
I'll wear pajamas and give up pajahmas.
For we know we need each other,
So we better call the calling off off.
Let's call the whole thing off!

You say laughter and I say lawfter,
You say after and I say awfter;
Laughter, lawfter, after, awfter,
Let's call the whole thing off!
You like vanilla and I like vanella,
You, sa's'parilla and I sa's'parella;
Vanilla, vanella, Choc'late, strawb'ry!
Let's call the whole thing off!
But oh! If we call the whole thing off,
Then we must part.
And oh! If we ever part,
Then that might break my heart!
So, if you go for oysters and I go for ersters
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters.
For we know we need each other,
So we better call the calling off off!
Let's call the whole thing off!

Apologies: If some didn't understand my daft sense of humour..

I say scones, I refuse to spell it differently because with over 2/3 of the population using this pronunciation I consider it the right way to say it but to clear it up I say, skɒn!

I say neither fr Bath, I kinda say Baaath, with an extra long hard A!

Im not sure what those are so I say it the way he doesnt which I think is the Bow-wee

bullevard!

[Goodsoulette]

I always think people who say skəʊn are a chav mums pretending they are posh. Sorry!

[helliebobs]

Hi Jules, hope you're having a good day and your tum is better :)

I honestly can't be arsed typing out my answers so I will say all of these words when i ring you then you can hear for yourself but due to my Lanky accent I pronounce most things with a short vowel and i'm sure it'll really annoy you teeheehee :)

I go with big mamma's versions. I hate it when people miss letters out etc for instance people who say pacifically instead of specifically ... like they have never seen the word in it's written form ... but it is their favourite word. I had tears in my eyes when Johnny Vaughn told Supernanny how to pronounce UN ACCEPTABLE.

[natalie_1982]

OMG - sorry to hijack.....sense4all, when did he tell her how to pronounce that? Sehe drives me mental! Unasseptible indeed.

Anyway:
Scons
Barth
Gar-ige
Bo-wee (in your example is that bow-wee as it a dicky bow or bow as in bow to an audience? I got confused)
Boo Le-Vard

[what..the?]

book or buke??

I say look and luck the same and get laughed at.

I don't put posh r's in everything -I find it annoying. Even though I was born a 'Lanchashire lass' I do not say buke and cuke!

[sense4all]

For Nat : It was when the kids first went back to school at the begining of September. On the capital web site the have a long recording but it only has him saying un- assceptable to her a lot at the begining not when he did say it after me ... unacceptable Jo say it! say it!
