POLL: How do you pronounce the letter 'W'



<< I say 'Dub-e-yah' >>


Maybe you should join the real world where everyone knows it is "Dub-el-you."
 
I guess living in the 'dirty south' (da da dirty dirty) is starting to have its ill effects 🙂
 
So like when ya'll see a volkswagen... You say 'Ve-Double-you'??
 
Not being a hick, I tend to say Dub-el-you.

Although when I use to watch WWF I would hate how Michael Cole was always saying Dub-el-you Dub-el-you Eff.
 
Haha.. Well id hardly call myself a hick either... Im a jewish boy from Jersey who moved to South Florida at 10 then to North Florida (only 'true' southern place ive lived) for college at 17 🙂

Actually, the most non-hick way to say it would be with an *upside-down* e 😉

I had a friend who moved to Georgia, 1 year later he came back to visit and he had a southern accent, so I understand
 


<< You may be southern, but at least you're not neffing!


Oh wait... >>



Hey now, i think its a pretty valid question... You wanna see some serious neffing, come on here 'round 3am 😀
 


<< Dub-el-you

i just think of it like 'double u'. this is probably where it came from. >>

OMG A SECOND VOTE!!!!! Come forward my friend, make yourself at home 🙂

EDIT: Shock, a 3rd?!??! 🙂
 
Dub-e-ya

really i say it more like 'dub-ul-ya' but it was closest to your vote option.

Usually I'd pronounce it 'you' but it's hard to say it like that when you're pronouncing, "www." for instance.
 
Being born and raised in the south it is pretty hard to not say it like those surrounding you, but I try to make an effort to say it correctly... on occasion though I catch myself saying dub-ya.
