FICTATIOUS.

i've heard someone in all serious say FAH-JIE-TAH for fajita.

that's how we pronounce such things in the midwest.

now i'm hungry for a kwessadilia.

Anx said:

Don't you mean Kessadill?

My neighbor constantly slaughters the English language...can you guess what he meant by this:

"I can't believe anyone would want want more than one...I could never be a BOLYGAMIST!"



Oh he has tons of them....

Those are spanish words
Is it wrong to pronounce them in Spanish?

Reminds me of the time I was sitting in a McDonald's listening to this woman brag about her trip to France and she was speaking...er...French...with a very American mannerism. "Bonnjower!"

At least that was a foreign language.

Anx said:

awesome. I actually coined "misdunderestimate" way before George W. used it.

PANDURITO said:

You're supposed to pronounce them in spanish!

someone at macy's yeasterday asked me if I was from texas or another part of the south, cause I got that country twang in my voice I DO NOT!!!! I was like no I am from Chicago.

A friend and coworker of mine once said "SuperFICIOUS" in a meeting like 10 times. He was trying to say the word "Superflous" but kept messing it up.
It was like watching somebody run their fingers down a chalkboard mainly becuase all the people he was saying it to knew he was using the wrong word.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

So I don't understand what a hard j and a hard a are

PANDURITO said:

I'm sure Supa can show you what a hard a and hard j are!

Will it hurt?

PANDURITO said:

I don't know! I don't know what they are either!

PANDURITO said:

TAY-CO and Juh (not ha) la pee no

fathermcmeekle said:

i think what's being called "hard a" was what i grew up knowing as, um, "long a".

Anx said:

Believe this or not, when I was growing up it was referred to as a "throbbing a".

fathermcmeekle said:

Hard, long and throbbing

maybe it was the BANSHEE
