Noofielanders say aboot too

I bet he called Noofenland...

Red

**Blown_SC** · 02-02-2005, 08:14 PM

We don't say it that way. No one I have ever met says it that way.

Like Red said, we say in this manner: Ab-out ....

**l6873** · 02-02-2005, 08:17 PM

Look at the name Newfoundland. It's not New-found-land, but Newfoonland... even the ou in the name of the province is pronounced oo, so no wonder thay say the ou in about as oo. There are probably other words with ou in it which they pronounce it as oo. I've only hear somone say aboot once though.

Your spelling is apauling. lol sorry

**Red Ketchup** · 02-02-2005, 08:28 PM

So messy, WHERE did you call in Canada?

You do realize this country does spread out a little... we're only 41 times larger than the UK after all...

so saying "I called someone in Canada" without specifying where is just a tad vague... (sort of like my saying "I called someone somewhere in Europe, the middle east and northern Africa)

I would bet you probably called Newfoundland...

Yea maybe its that im used to speaking to people with a different accent? Trust me when your not from that country or region you pick things up in someones accent that most people wouldnt, its probably the same when you guys speak to us English.

I understand, I was talking to a good friend in Louisiana, and she thinks that I have an accent

Exactly its all location, everyone speaks different we dont notice. Man i spoke to some people in Australia too, some of the guys accents over there are so strong i couldnt understand, the australian accent sounds hot on women though

That's just how it's said here in the south, I suggest you get use to it......

**jonnytour** · 02-03-2005, 09:12 AM

Hey Messy!! Gimme a call bro. I can PM you my toll free #. It shoudl work over there. You can see if I say aboot. I tell you man...it is abosolute BS! It is pronounced ab-out as was said before.

**needmorestrength** · 02-03-2005, 10:07 AM

Listen Messy the Next time I was over in the UK I was gonna buy you a beer eh, but now im aboot to shove a beaver up yer ass! haha Seriously Messy Maybe you were talking to Newfie's because I have heard them say aboot but thats it!

**chicamahomico** · 02-03-2005, 10:29 AM

That's why nobody can understand what the bastards ar saying lol. Every Canadian east of Alberta says ab-oot or overempasizes the 'ou' in certain words. Must be something in the water out there.
