I sure hope the first word doesn't get pronounced, "nice beaver."
Oh, and for the record, I can go so far with regional pronounciations. For instance, if someone's from the West Coast Portland, fine, I'll say Oh-riggin, instead of orrigahn.
But anyone from St. Louis (and please, say it English, -- Saynt Lewis -- or be pretentious and say it French -- Sahnl Wee -- but please, Saynt Looey just sounds stoopid!), if they tell me I've gotta pronounce it "Mizzuhrah," so help me, I'm gonna beat them over the head with the stump of their own arm until they assent to "Nuh Yawk" and "Nuh Joyzee." There's a difference between an accent and a pronunication, and I'm not gonna mimic anyone's accent.
Oh, and it ain't "Kunnecktickutt." It's "Kinnettickitt." Just like "Kinetic" energy. That's not just a blue-blood pronunciation like saying "Wistah" for "Worcestor"; Connecticut is named for the Connetquot. And "Worcestor," without the blue-blood accent is still pronounced like "Worse" plus "stir." Break it apart and it really does make sence.
That ain't how you pronounce Kentucky.
