Canadians say “aboot”. Even survivor man on the discovery channel says it. You probably don’t realise the slang but I bet you do. CPO Frazer on MvC which I’ve talked to on Xbox Live even says it but he didn’t realize it. It’s just a vowel of “o” which translates as a “ewe” or “u” sound which must apparently be undetectable by Canadians. Haha I’d guess.



aboot???

wow....

a boot?

im not following??

what do we canadians say?



You say a boot.

Now try saying, “a bow” or owe, or ah-oh-T ... a-bow-T, no a-boot. lol


Try saying this letter: w. wink

Also this kind of cracks me up - how you guys say “Notre Dame”.



Double-ya

Noder dame

Hahaha

I don’t say “W” like that but I do say Noder dame.

i thought the term was dub-ya bush.

i also think the dubble-ya is much more prevalent in the midwest, east coast and the south, but it’s still often said in the north and south wests, and the west coast.

ok, i guess the emo’s of the west coast don’t call george w. bush “dubya”. but the rest of the world does. you see it actually spelt out like that in papers.

Don’t wanna be a Canadian idiot
Don’t wanna be some beer swillin' hockey nut
And do I look like some frostbitten hose-head?
I never learned my alphabet from A to Zed

They all live on donuts and moose meat
And they leave the house without packin' heat
Never even bring their guns to the mall
And you know what else is too funny?
Their stupid Monopoly money
Can’t take 'em seriously at all

Well maple syrup and snow’s what they export
They treat curling just like it’s a real sport
They think their silly accent is so cute
Can’t understand a thing they’re talkin' aboot

Sure they got their national health care
Cheaper meds, low crime rates and clean air
Then again well they got Celine Dion
Eat their weight in Kraft macaroni
And dream of drivin' a Zamboni
All over Saskatchewan

Don’t wanna be a Canadian idiot
Won’t figure out their temperature in Celsius
See the map, they’re hoverin' right over us
Tell you the truth, it makes me kinda nervous

Always hear the same kind of story
Break their nose and they’ll just say “sorry”
Tell me what kind of freaks are that polite?
It’s gotta mean they’re all up to somethin'
So quick, before they see it comin'
Time for a pre-emptive strike!

Thanks Al.

Well first we don’t say “aboot” wink.

I think the best thing is if people who are familiar with the different areas tell you about their experiences.

As for Ontario...well in southern Ontario anyhow we can get extremes of weather sometimes. Pretty cold in the winter, hot in the summer. Beautiful springs and autumns...but they’re typically short-lived anymore.

We have both the capital of Canada (Ottawa) and the best city (Toronto). I swear I’m not biased lol. *crosses fingers behind back* If anyone here is from Vancouver, don’t hit me tounge.

But Toronto is an amazing city, if you happen to like cities. We’ve also got Niagara Falls where I’m currently living.

Cost of living can be a bit high here, especially in Toronto.

Northern Ontario is another thing altogether...and I’m afraid I don’t know all that much about what it’s like there.


I was just amusing myself really. I like the whole “aboot” thing haha.

Anyway we’ve pretty much narrowed it down to British Columbia and Nova Scotia. Vancouver looks pretty nice, what’s it like up there?

The dubya is more a mockery thing I think because he is from Texas...If he wasn’t from there I can guarantee you people wouldn’t pronouce it like that...
