A British General asked Ike, "Where did you learn to pronounce 'school' like that?"
He said, "At SKool". 😁
I hope that came across properly
A perfect example of a line in a Most Interesting Man in the World parody called The Most English Man in the World:
“He can’t understand the speech of people from 50 miles away in his own country, yet insists to Americans that the way he pronounces words is correct.”
Absolutely. Thanks for sharing that. I'd never heard it before. It's like the British mispronounce the word "schedule" the same way. Aluminum they pronounce al-u-min-i-um. And garage, as gair-ige (gar as in garish). Thankfully we didn't adopt their word biscuit for cookie. Cookie is actually from the Dutch word for cookie...Koekje, which is pronounced Kook-ja.
