Topic: Huntington....

[FlyHawk98]

How do you personally pronounce it. Huntington or Hunington lol.

I always leave out that first "t" and pronounce it Hunington.

[biggreenarms]

I didn't realize it until you posted this but I don't pronounce the t either. As Doug Heffener would say..."HUH!"

[Big Ol' Hillbilly]

Funny you brought this up because I was just talking to somebody at the beach the other day who pronounced it HunTington, and I thought how weird it sounded because I always pronounce it HuNington.

[HERDFAN1999]

I'll always pronounce it as, "home". 

[miltonherdfan]

steve cotton always pronounces that 1st "t".  & he always puts the middle "o" in sophomore, as well.  :-)

[goherd24]

I'll always pronounce it as, "home". 

Haha. Mr. Cheese!

Now do you say "windOw" or "windUh" i say Winda/winduh.

[Johnnyherd]

I'll always pronounce it as, "home".

Funny that's another mispronounced word, most people put an "L" in it and say Holme. It's actually "Ho mmm"

[extragreen]

I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello.

[FlyHawk98]

haha, glad to see some others liked this.

Steve Cotton ALWAYS pronounces that first "t."

We were in northern ohio a few weeks ago and heard someone say it the way Cotton does. It got me thinking as to how everyone else around here says it. Didn't know if maybe I was one of the only ones lol.

[BerkshireHerdFan]

I always said it without the first T

[herdman]

I always thought it was Huningdon.

[HERDFAN1999]

Haha. Mr. Cheese!

Now do you say "windOw" or "windUh" i say Winda/winduh.

WindOw of course! 

Hollow or holler?   ;D

[FlyHawk98]

holler without a doubt

Did you know that red headed kid was the with the 5th overall draft pick in the 2013 mlb draft?

[Gaylen]

Depends on what side of the tracks you grew up on....Or if you claim you be from Wayne county...But only the Htgn section of Wayne County....

[MUonium]

a gazillion Huntingtons but only 1 Hunningten    I'm from Barbersville, Cabull Co

[00mag12gaVa]

And there is the state of "Uh-High"  ;D

[wasbarryb]

How about wash or warsh?

Battery or batree.

And how many or us drop g's off any word ending in ing?

Funny thing is for most of these pronunciations I'm pretty sure I use the more colloquial when I'm not thinking about the word. When I think about the pronunciation  I use the more Midwestern diction.

In any event if I were to use hollar or batree my 92 year old mother would leap out of her walker and beat the living daylights out of me with said walker.

[DJdaHERDfan]

Lol
Funny thread

I started saying "hunderd" instead of hundred. The local village speak here tends to rub off on ya.
I also say "kooo laid" instead of kool-aid.
Lol

[ThunderValley]

Truly an embarrassing thread.  What's worse is that I've always said "hunnington"
