Conversation re: NJ vs. PA pronunciation of ‘comfortable’

Posted by Princess MoMo on May 18 in Princess MoMo's Friends

Princess (to NJ friend): Pronounce ‘comfortable.’

 
Male NJ Friend: Comfortable.

 
Princess: Yes. Exactly. A PA guy and I were debating the pronunciation. I argued that our way has less syllables and is better. According to dictionary.com though, we’re both correct. But he was trying to tell me that our way is wrong because of the way the word is spelled.

 
Male NJ Friend: That’s bullshit then. Tell him to stay in his own state and not to come here and date our girls if he doesn’t like the way we pronounce things.
