  • FUG UE MAN :joy:

  • Jakobs use to crack me up, and he knew how to pronounce it properly, he always would say FOOGOO

  • Foo gee machine.
    Foo gooey machine.
    Fuhg machine.
    Fuggy machine.
    Fyoog machine.
    Fuct machine.

    How about simply F Machine? Ya know what I mean?

  • I say it like Foog... you know, like Moog.

  • Few - gghh

  • Moooooooooog

    Moog...
    Like a cow, or cutting the grass?
    You are just adding to the confusion! :D

    Maybe, if it were the John Fogerty Machine.

  • (Yeah, it’s a lame dad-styled joke. :lol: )

  • Definitely Fewg.

  • I'm still trying to figure out why half the people on the internet think "loose" is pronounced "lose."

    Ah, the one that gets me is when our American friends pronounce herb as ‘erb. Or worse, abandon the T in so many words....such as us being on the Inner-net. (-;

  • I spent the first 18 years of my life saying wahrter, instead of water. Didn’t even realize it until it was brought to my attention. I found it pretty hilarious at the time. :)

    All our accents have quirks, when heard by other ears. :)

    I recall visiting an American girlfriend, back in the day, at Penn State University, and people I met there getting me to say “Tea, hot, Earl Grey.” Like Captain Picard on Star Trek.

    Some folks, when plonked down in a different environment, quickly and unconsciously app the local pronunciation. I’m the opposite. Whenever I am abroad, my speech unconsciously becomes more English. :p

    Might want to see a doctor about that, you could be Australian.

    I used to think waves had an h like ocean whaves or sine whaves or whaving goodbye...wasn't a regional thing either, my family would bug me about it and it took a long time to shake. Still seems plausible tbh.

    Alas, there is no treatment for that. ;)

    Our Aussie friends have many different ways to mangle English, but always manage it in such a friendly sounding way.

    Aussie joke -

    Bruce spots a woman he likes in a bar, walks straight up to her and says -

    ‘Hey Shiela, do you screw?”

    The reply comes back -

    “I sure do, you smooth talking bastard.’ :D

    And many of the same folks make fun of New Yorkers describing something very large as "youge" instead of "hewge".

    This is my single favorite Americanism. It's a really really weird one in that I've never been able to determine a source. People from all over the country say it but there's no place where most of the people say it. Mind, I lived in DC for 15 years and have lived 5 miles from the Washington State border for the last 12. Been long fascinated and had I heard you say it I would have asked you where you were from. Data thus far remains inconclusive.

  • Actually, there's another one that seems to defy US geographical origin: leg and egg. Most people say "lehg", but there are many who say "layg".

    That's just English being absurd. I mean, we all know it and I've been feeling it keenly for last 5 years as my daughter navigates elementary school. "Well, yeah, that's a weird one" is a common spelling answer at my house. Whaves and Wharf (which is pronounced differently than Scarf, of course) should follow the same convention but English is more promiscuous than a Korg virtual MIDI port.

  • I don't have that app, but just by reading it, I would say "FEWG".

    If I found out later that it was supposed to be pronounced differently, then I would continue to say "FEWG", because that's how I read it, and that's what makes most sense to me.

  • English, as spoken by British people, in Great Britain (or to give it the proper name, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) (where Great Britain is the land mass that includes England; Scotland; Wales (and according to the Cornish, Cornwall – in their dreams)) is a perfectly orthographic logical and sensible language. Look:

    Mans
    laughter

    Manslaughter.

  • At last the chance to say it! : You are = YOU'RE. Not YOUR!!
    ! #%!€!&!

    Bach wrote fugues, contrapuntal compositions, of course, but a fugue can also be a flight of thoughts, words or actions by a lunatic, hysteric or epileptic. I guess most of us fit in there somewhere.

    Could it be the Transatlantic/Mid-Atlantic accent? Its interesting in that it arose more from movies and boarding schools than a geographical area.

    (although I kind of think they would say Whattah for water but Im not sure)

  • I had to check my memory on fugue state... I left something out... the flight is from one's own identity! Definitely applies to me in this case.

    Haha! ;)

  • First exposed to the word when I heard the Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor as a young boy....

  • How embarrassing. I thought it was pronounced Fudge Machine.
