Don't even ask me why Texans don't pronounce Pedernales, Burnet, and Manchaca the way they look here.

Pur-da-nal-lees
Burn-et
Man-chack-ka

What's so hard about that?
:)

[naturalized]

I've also heard it Burn-it.

[Constitutionalist Conservative]

Man-chack-ka

When I lived in Austin (1976-1986), the "correct" pronunciation for Manchaca was "MAN-chack".

[ichabod1]

Pert-in-alis,

Burn-it

Man-shack.

Another Austin Fave: Guada-loop.

Here in Houstonm San Felipe is San Fileep.

Frontage Road, Access Road, or Feeder?

I love regional dialects.

Boston: Soda? Pop? or Tonic? Gotta go get my clothes from the Cleanser.

And then there is the broad A. For a more novel example than Paak the Caah at Haavad Yaad, how about

Khakis -- Something you start your car with.
Car-keys -- A pair of tan colored cotton twill trousers.

Don't forget Bexar & Nacogdoches!
