my funny accent is on that thread. i've been convincing myself i don't quite say "aboot" but we do still sound odd when we say "about".
hah! i have a bud that lives in saskatchaswmfposwan (nooo idea how to spell that), and i always call him out when he says
aboot and ends every other sentence with
ehhhhhh.
yeah, some of the provinces have native/first nations names that are hard to pronounce and spell.
we DO say "eh?" and something sort of like "aboot". we think that we don't, but if you ask someone from here if abOUt and arOUnd have the same or different vowel sound.... well, we think it should be different, but it is supposed to be the same.
