    Yeah, you wouldn't mind saying "Alles klaar, schweinhund!" (sp?) would you? I'm aware it doesn't make a great deal of sense, but I've always wanted to hear someone say it.

      Gee as in the G in Gold
      Djee as in the G in Gender
      This space is empty... or is it?

        Seems as though Bostonians can't pronounce the letter R... Yet in the south the over use the R (i.e. wash).

        My wife pronounces Italian as "eye"-tellin'. I say "uh"-towel-un.

        My old math teach couldn't say "both"... she always said "bolth" <--note the "L" that slipped in there.

        One think that bugs me is "Caribbean", is there a correct way to say it?

        Also, the word "learned", is it learn-ed or learn'd?

        Monkey!!!

            Lurn-ed is for the adjective. He is a learned individual.
            Lurnt is for the verb. He learnt to play the guitar.

              I have an odd accent, even for a Canadian.

              People I live near ask how long I've been in-country.

                  Oasis have a song, "Round Are Way".

                  Doesn't matter really.

                    When NZ'ers hear Aussies say "sex" we hear "six" and when they say "six" we hear "sex".

                    And Vice Versa when Aussies hear us speak those words. It can be funny sometimes.
