ummm…I agree with mobius, I say it like it looks, but not the other two…who says roof like “rough”?

22

ive heard rough roof a lot around here

stop tryin to act so erudite rockb

23

Maybe you guys speak Canadian English then.

I’ve heard real life Americans say stuff like GIT OFF THE ROUGH OR YA’LL FALL OFF DAT DERE GARRIAGE.

In my mind that is how all Americans talk.

24

the only people i’ve heard that mispronounce shit like roof as rough, are old people. not saying it doesn’t happen any other time but i’d say a large majority of the time old people are to blame (for everything).

25

mother fuckers, making me want to go get pho
which I pronounce foe. Hell, even other viets I know pronounce it thusly. Yet I’ve heard the fuh vs foe vs fah battles many a time before

I really need to try more varieties, rather than just rare beef and beef balls…off to Bin Minh I go

26

I have never heard this in my life. Your “corrected” versions are the only ways I’ve ever heard these words pronounced in English. Better examples would have been, well, anything Spanish. Welcome to Los Angeles, etc.

27

i speak 'merican…

28

Also, from the previous thread, regarding asian women, little old asian women, etc:

29

dumb discussion about dialects

So…I’m out.

Moe Szyslak calls it a car hole

31

My parents actually put Rs in where they don’t exist, for example, they say “warsh” instead of wash…

32

So I take it im the only person here that says pho as FUH.

33

No, I do as well…

34

it’s so true. The one girl I know, she keeps asking her boyfriend (who is white) why he wants to marry her, when she’s just gonna look horrible in 10 years

35

Is it the right way to say it? I’ve heard some of my vietnamese friends say FOH.

36

Cambodians and Viets told me it’s pronounced Fah too.

And no tags? How can we get by?

37

i’ve never heard anyone say ‘roof’ as ‘rough’

38

i have…its more of an accent thing. Some say it rough, or ruff, instead of roof. I hate people who pronounce schedule as shhhedule. Or call windows win-duhs

39

Korean Pho rhymes with RockyBo,
And on the off chance you didn’t know,
He hates girls on whom he can’t prevail,
But instead of 2 in 1 auto-fail,
FADC uppercuts 'dem hos

I heard someone southern (dude sounded like Bill Compton) say “wruff” before.
