OT: Hey, why do you talk funny?

[Bezzz]

For some reason my siblings and I grew up in the 60's pronouncing "milk" as "melk". Central Connecticut. Can't explain that one.

Coke vs another cola is a brandmame issue not language.
Companies spend millions to keep their name from becoming generic.
To my Mom every refrigerator was a Frigidaire.

Why did my West Haven cousins always say soder instead of soda
kind of a Boston.
My great Aunt made the best Grinders in Eastern Ct
In Bridgeport Pete's Sub became Subway

Can't recall anyone in CT using coke instead of soda.


Q. 15: What are the possible different pronunciations of "Mary", "merry", and "marry"?

People say it like "murray"

My friend in Alabama pronounces Pepsi as if it has 3 syllables: pay-ep-si

But any way you slice it, Pepsi isn't a Coke. To me, Coca Cola products taste good, while Pepsi just tastes sweet and funny.
