Depending on the side of the state you’re from, in MO you drink “soda” or “pop.” The pronounciation of the state’s name is, again, depending on what side of the state you’re from, either “Missouri” or “Missourah.”

And then there’s Versailles, MO. It’spronounced “Ver-Sails” by everybody.

Don’t forget Bolivar, named after Simon.

It’s pronounced Bolliver.
