plotus2 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 Is there any difference of pronounciation for the word SALOON between British and American?
Hannah Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 I don't think so? I live in the UK and from what I know, we pronounce it the same as the Americans.
» Pat Posted September 18, 2010 Report Posted September 18, 2010 Well, depends which part of UK/US we're talking about; i.e. Northern UK != Southern and same goes for US. You'll find differences even within the countries.
plotus2 Posted September 18, 2010 Author Report Posted September 18, 2010 (edited) If you go here, http://www.forvo.com/word/saloon/ The person from UK pronounce it as sɘlűn (phonetically written) instead of selɔ:n. From what I heard in Desperate Housewives Season 6, Bree (Marcia Gross) opts for the latter, and we know that she is American, rite? Edited September 18, 2010 by plotus2
