why do some people say "axe" when i think they mean to say "ask"?

[BlahBlahYouToo]

do they have a speech impediment?

if i ask them to say "mask", will they say "max"?

 

[nageov3t]

people speak funny.

I'm pretty sure most people who say "axe" can say it the correct way if they want to.

Not everyone speaks proper English all the time.

They do it to save you the time of deducting that they're a moron. It's a real time saver.

They are too lazy to make the "S" and "K" sounds when it is so much easier to just pronouce "X".

Just remember; the person that speaks like that, is likely to "axe" you if you want fries with that.

"axe" i can barely stomach...

"birt-day" - not so much.

 

[slackerinabox]

But you know what's worse than the the guy/gal who says "axe?" The person who corrects them, out loud, in front of other people.. Usually in a condescending manner.. Let people be! Of course, I don't normally associate myself with someone who speaks that way, but correcting them isn't actually going to build a better relationship either.

Come to the south... you'll get used to it.

[lokiju]

That shit drives me nuts.

People at work will say it all the time like that when they pronounce every other word perfectly.
