Ee Fah

 Currently stewing in Nevada is a linguistic dustup over pronunciations. Yep. That's pronounced ... 'yep' ... just like it's spelled. So the range of enunciations for oh say aoife which is the title moniker for this here ridicule of the vacuous, would be 'ee-fah' or 'eff you' for brevity. Then we can toss in 'charcuterie' which is pronounced 'shar-koo-tuh-ree' which brings up a minor twist to our action reporting ... why? Why is any of this news? To further confuse this stellar distraction for all things important to relevance is the number one mispronounced world in Nevada ... wait for it ... 'macabre' pronounced exactly as it's spelled ... 'muh-kahb'. This ridiculous bullshit is highlighted on the CBS affiliate in Vegas and CBS is in the middle of gutting their entire news and entertainment venues so CBS Vegas is keeping a very low profile and praying to the televisions gods that the new braintrust at CBS overlook CBS Vegas. CBS Vegas has never been a mainstream player and the relegation to the bottom rung of televised Vegas is mostly due to irrelevance, airing NFL footbowls "Raiders", on air talent that is mostly lacking in ... talent. So much ado about not shit and that's the news from down in the Vegas which for the most part is a news desert and there is absolutely no chance of anything changing for the better. Nevada being stuck on pronunciations is mostly fluff. However .. Nevada pronunciations got nothing on Utah and Utah is famous for 'Hurricane' which is pronounced ... 'herr-kun' or 'Tooele' which is pronounced 'too-will-ah' or 'Layton' which is pronounced 'layt-un' pronunciations are mostly regional dialects and those dialects vary across the board and across the nation. Try conversation with someone native to Mississippi ... good luck with that. Now for Thursday machine art.

I've been told by people from back east that I speak with a drawl ... frankly, I've never heard that ... 😏

disclaimer - I do not live in Vegas ... Vegas lies a way down yonder from where we live in the Mojave. we do however get television from there ... the wife and I don't watch very much television ... not anymore. television these days is mostly trite bullshit that really shouldn't be advertised as entertainment.
