      It depends...

      Newspapers are delivered via a paper root
      Buy a road is a rout.

        "aren't" and "aunt" pronounced the same? I don't hear it.

          QFT. And they rhyme with "can't."
          "Aren't" and "can't" rhyme??

          That's a new and different pronunciation.

            Oh yep!

            Half my countrymen would disagree with you though.

              I think he's shooting for "on-nt" (the first part is pronounced the same as "on".

                  That would rhyme with "haunt" - no?

                    No.

                    It's pronounced R-n-t. and Car-n-t.

                      I go for a more "aw" for haunt - "haw-nt" as opposed to "haant" like in New England.

                      My ex-mother-in-law was so NE she couldn't say "put a cork in it" without sounding dirty.

                          Yeah, yeah. I forgot to look at the flag.

                          That and a Paul Hogan movie flashback cleared me right up. (Note, not the Doolittle reference above. That's different too)

                              Sending mail is "rout"
                              Delivering papers is a "rout"
                              An established line of travel "rout" (wich directly conflicts with the first example... hmm?)

                              Exactly.
