When I hear ‘ di-int’ I could bitch-slap the offender into the next millenium.

Oooooh......”di-int” is my biggest pet peeve.

I think it’s just lazy speaking. Hate it.

(like, you know?)

“When I hear ‘ di-int’ I could bitch-slap the offender into the next millenium.”

If you got the meaning, go to hell!

Di-int. That’s a classic Carolinas accent that I’ve also heard from a Virginian. They also end words with certain diphthongs such as “show” with a smorgasbord of vowel phonemes that come out (essentially unspellably) as “shoiy.”
