The most bizzarre phone conversation


Just had it with the Pink Princess Erin
She rang me to ask why banana and nana dont sound the same. They do when i say them in my dialect but in Erins, she somehow has managed to get a r into banana

Then she proceeds to ask me to say beer can with sounding like a Jamacan asking for the bacon

She's has worked in mental health way too long me thinks.

I also heard her talk to the dogs in a welsh accent

Re: The most bizzarre phone conversation


Youre right Erin!!! Try as I might, beer can comes out sounding like biacaaan . . .

And nana (narner) kind of gets close to banana (bun-ahn-a), but they are a bit different.

I guess it really depends on how you pronounce the actual words!

I'd be interested to hear how an Aberdonian pronouces beer can; can someone persuade Elaine to record her voice and youtube it???

How can you say beer Can wrong? Unless you spell it differently.
