A lot of them also say garage with an ultra-soft 2nd g as if they're french. Like garaj. Mind you I reckon some of you soft southern gentlepeople do a similar thing? Amirite?

I just tried to ask my fella how he pronounced the word, as he's Scottish. Me: "How do you say g-a-r-a-g-e?" Him: "Garr-age? What, like when you've been garred?" ... I think he's hungover.

Also, evenin', Swamptrix. I've not been around and about with much regularity online of late so not gotten around to replying to prior PM. Tis on me ToDo list though. Just be grateful you slipped from last night's replies cos lawdy have I been in rambling man mode 8o

Evening! (Though I feel a swamptrix sounds like something that needs some sort of catsuit. Which I don't have handy. =D) And is okay, I've not been around that much anyway, so don't feel too obliged if you're not in the mood for writing. :) How's things, anyway?

haha! Asking hungover Scottish boyfriends (husbands? fella is such a vague term! However I do not want to label him, or you! I'm against labels.) complicated questions involving spelling and pronunciation is a sort of domestic abuse don't you know?

Bluelight! Sort yourself out! "too busy" yadda yadda yadda
 
I'm drinkin' kwaffee on the kwornah of 33rd and 1st. Eatin' a boigah. Slingin' fiah.

I've probably got it all wrong. I think the Irish immigrants to Noo Yoik have something to answer for in this.

Do please put one on order for future usage then, m'dear. Never know when a catsuit may be vital to the survival of the peoples of this Earth. And things is quite dandy thanks :)

Tonight I am mostly a bit dissociotised and sipping inspid American beer and mocking their atrocious mangling of accents and words and stuffs and thats. I like American accents but they really do horrible things to other people's languages. Can they not hear themselves saying it?
 
How did you get to be dissociotised? My 15mg 3-MeO-PCP has done zilch. Nada. not a scrot. Sweet Frig y'all.

True. The 'erb herb thing has always got on my tits whenever I hear them say it.

It's just the same as us saying hour, honestly, heir etc as opposed to have, him, home etc

Apparently if the word is from a romance language then the 'h' is silent, if from a germanic language then the 'h' is not silent.. I actually think the Americans have it right this time
 
there's some truth in that, but not the bit about american's having it right.

We Brits naturalise words to fit in with our native pronunciation.

I think that's OK!

I got to be dissociotised via the medium of... erm... ~200mg MXP solution sloshing 'round 'n' 'bout me stage exit area. And (thanks to fortuitous lil ooopsie at the vendor packing place) twice as much cannabbinnabbannabbannanoids as I was expecting. And deeply dissatisfying beer. And bupe, I s'pose ('tho that don't count cos iz medicinal... unless I were to sniff some more). Put the parts together in the correct ratio and you would find yourself dissociotised too.
 
Will dissociation make me feel human again tomorrow? That's the two shilling question. I know it'll make me feel superhuman right now, but I have my eye on the future.

We don't always fit foreign words in with our native pronunciation - such as 'penchant' but we do with 'fillet' for example. The Americans are the exact opposite with these two words.. who's to say who's right or wrong
 
It's not about what's right or wrong, but about what irks and what does not :D

I think it's a process over time. We say pongshong now but in 20 years we'll all be saying pen chant. Or Shìhào.

It's just irritating being in the middle of it all.

Would it speed up the arranging of an EADD meet?

Can't argue with that. Although I do love a nice southern US accent, all True Blood-stylee.
 
But you DROVE him to drink! ;)

OK, I'm going to try the full dissociative refreshment tonic. 30mg 3-MeO-PCP. Don't say I didn't warn you .

And it is also the question I have my eye on cos I have to go for "nice, family, birthday dinner" tomorrow apparently. Well not have to but... have to. I'll be sure to let you know how I fall on the superhuman scale come the morrow :D
 
Har. How can I drive him to drugs instead? =D

And it sounds like it might be a fun night around here!
