Ah, I love hearing Canadians say words like "out" or "about" lol. For some reason my 25 year old sister watches Degrassy: The Next Generation on The N (Nickelodeon for teenagers, for those who didn't know) and it gets me everytime I hear them say it. :P Sounds kinda like "oat" and "a boat" lol.

ya there is a definite difference there with the owt and abowt sounds, my friend from Canada lived with us for almost a year and ever since i have had that little accent thing, so people always ask if i'm from canada

of course, i am kinda losing my new england accent :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Veilingmeat · 09-19-2005, 11:43 PM

Hmm, this means the abyss has gazed into you Andrea :devil1:

....anyway about these differant sayings and slangs we all have, i see it's never been mentioned that Americans say Pasta in a way that its not meant to be said..they say it 'Par-star' ......wos up with that!? and 'Semi' they say it 'Semi-y'? :P
You see...i know all you yanks have this thing going about you changing the words you think is right and so on...such as 'Armour' to 'Armor' and 'Colour' to 'Color' lol, wos that all about???? i even go to Dictoinary.com and it says Chiefly British "Variant of"..........i'v got nothing against the good ol' US of A and i'm not particuarly sticking up for ol' Blighty either!
...its just something/someones gone wrong somewhere!? it must be some huge burger eating american has had it in for the stuck up pansy tea drinking toffs of this country, lmao :P To hell with Traditional Old Gentry in the Old Domain....Cockney Rabbit all the way i say!!!! ;)

Er' have a butchers at this...I could'nt be bothered to go into captain kirk the other day, coz i were'nt very james dean...so i threw a metal micky! that were'nt until i'd realised i'd forgotten me cheddars, and locked me self out...i was gaspin for a nice cup of bruce...everything all went a bit nick cotton!
So to stop meself from goin chicken jalfrezi, i got meself an andy mcnab down the boozer for a few britney spears...that was 10-8, coz i saw me ol' bacardi down there, aint seen him in ages. It then started to get a bit gorky park and i was a bit mickey monk....i was a bit barb wired, so i took a quick jack dash, headed home..."Gawd, didn't I let this great big wyatt out" i said to meself....got home walked passed the missus and said "I'm off up the apples and pear to fakey ned." ...my strawberry only beats for you treacle :P
