Welcome to Massachusetts. 😎

I need to be careful.
I got blocked here once by an American who insisted I was pronouncing it wrong 🤣🤣🤣
@stueytheround @wolfwoman @Museek
I have had to coach someone on the proper pronunciation for the town of Peabody.
@grayman @stueytheround @Museek
There aren't so many in MD that I'm aware of. But I *do* know that most folx pronounce Norfolk wrong.

There are so many traps in the UK
For instance in Scotland there's a small fishing town
Kirkudbright
or on the border you can visit Hawick. You're already pronouncing them wrong 🤣🤣
@stueytheround @wolfwoman @grayman @Museek Kirkbrt and Heyck?
@stueytheround @AskTheDevil @grayman @Museek
I was close on the 2nd... didn't get the "oy" sound.
@wolfwoman @AskTheDevil @grayman @Museek
The one which gets me every time is Beaulieu (famous for the motor museum) which is pronounced Byew Lee! 🤣🤣
@stueytheround @wolfwoman @AskTheDevil @grayman @Museek Hey I've been there! It's cool!
@JolieSaboteuse Oh yeah! It's superb. Almost all the cars there are roadgoing too. Very few are "ornaments". btw did you make it to the Coventry one in the end?
@stueytheround @JolieSaboteuse @AskTheDevil @grayman @Museek
Oh my.... I really want to go there! I love cars!
