I’ll need to known how you pronounce “Pecan” “Ruidoso” (New Mexico town) and “potatoe “
_______________________________________________________

pi-cahn´ - at least that’s what they told me in New Orleans.

If it’s pronounced the Spanish way, I’d say rwee-doe´-soe. If it’s been anglicized, I’d say ri-doe´-soe.

pə-tay´-toe

Can I move to Texas now?
