I grew up calling it what my parents did, “sherbert,” but it was clearly spelled “sherbet.”

I also didn’t understand why my mom said “warsh” for “wash,” but I don’t recall pronouncing that wrong.

I always thought that ‘sorbet’ was more icy and less creamy, and used as a ‘palate cleanser’ in a formal dinner.

Language tends to migrate towards lazy pronunciation followed by spelling changes to accommodate the lazier pronunciation.

I think it was originally “sherbet” which has partially migrated to “sherbert”.

Schubert.

Ketchup? Catsup?

[Dr. Sivana]

Sherbet. The “r” is implied.

Normal people also say Fudgicle, not Fudge-sicle, regardless of what the company maintains.

On a picnic a Scot named McFee
Was stung in the balls by a bee.
He made oodles of money
By oozing pure honey
Each time he attempted to pee.

I thought that crap was extinct.

The correct pronunciation is “WTF is this sh1t, go get me some ice cream”.

[Uncle Miltie]

Sorbet.

Duh.

I know we're supposed to be hating on, 'All Things PBS' these days, but you will NEVER make me stop loving Ernie...even if Bert creeps me out.

Food & Wine? Your argument is invalid!

-Instacart data shows that 63% of users searched for “sherbet” while 37% used the alternate spelling “sherbert.”

Just to cause trouble, I pronounce it “sherbert”, but spell it “sherbet”.

Public education victims can’t tell the difference between Carmel and carAmel either.

[Chani]

My whole pronunciation world has been collapsing for years now. I find that the way I had always pronounced things has a different side.

I always pronounced it ‘sherbert’. During the reading of this thread I went and found some old containers I keep on hand, and My Goodness! It says ‘sherbet’! I am shocked.

Reminds me of recently discovering that pimento cheese, is actually ‘pimiento cheese’. I am shattered! lol

[fruser1]

I've always known it as "sherbert".

This "sherbet" thing is just another commie day-zero construct to rewrite history.

This is where it starts. Next, they'll be subtly changing phrases in the Constitution.

It’s a gay drink either way.
