    I can't comment on the thread about mispronunciations! :(


    I just wanted to say....y'all making me feel real bad about my manner of speaking. (I'm aware of what's wrong in that sentence)


    I speak both General Southern and Ebonics (which, btw, does have grammatical structures of its own). I have become fiercely protective of my accent and dialect ever since moving to NYC.


    That being said, "offenseful" is something I can't get behind.

    @chennui: I feel like i can't either b/c of the way words come out b/c of my accent. Even though I'm saying it right, it sounds like I'm saying something completely different or similar. Like cruel sounds like cool coming out of my mouth. Unless I make sure to enunciate.

    It's kind of funny for a foreigner to come to this country after years of learning English and find out that the natives have no clue how to speak it correctly. And that they don't understand where grammatical constructions and certain expression come from, which leads to all kinds of hilarity.

    @catness_: In fairness, most people probably wouldn't be able to explain the rules and grammatical constructions of their native language. Unless of course, they are etymologists. For the most part, when speaking their native language, people only understand what does and does not sound correct to their ears. Many people would be hard-pressed to discuss sentence structure, superlatives, present-perfect tenses, or hanging participles. When a language is native to a person, things such as these are taken for granted. A non-native speaker, however, would be well-versed in the idiosyncracies of their second language, because they need to learn these rules in order for the language they are learning to make sense.

    I just watched this on my Tivo and when she called them followers I CRACKED UP - cause they WERE - and then they swarmed her like a pack of hyenas. She is so terrible! 'Oops! Am I offensive! Look at how cute I am!'


    But yeah that one girl CALLED it in the beginning when she said she likes to make people mad and the show called her the instigator - she did start the whole thing and pitted them against each other just to get revenge! Brills

    This show is intended to wake people up to the issue of mental illness, I'm guessing? They need psychiatric evaluation. All of that shit they say in the intro while describing themselves is just a denial mechanism to cope with their insanity.

    The only snippet I've ever seen of this show is when they showed a clip of Tanisha(?)on The Soup and then she shows up and bangs her pots at Joel McHale. LOL'd, I did.

    (There also may have been a clip of someone throwing an apple at someone else and the other girl was worried she'd get hit in the "brains.")<---Could be making that up.

    Everyone pronounces it Punkin'. It's not so much I give up as I just never even bothered. I had my own problems. KIMBERLY DOES NOT RHYME WITH EMILY!!!


    Also, loud black chick was killing me taking the other black girls friendship "for granite." She was looking at her like, "I don't want to be associated with your loud dumb ass." And why would she?!


    @ceejeemcbeegee: The only problem with my otherwise flawless English as a kid was my insistence that fake people were "two-faceded." But that's the only way I'd ever heard it pronounced! Ever!!! Someone corrected me once and I was like, "No, that doesn't sound right at all." I didn't stop doing that until 5th grade.

    Yeah, come to think of it, I used to say light-skinneded, too. Except most people I knew used the phrase "high-yellow" except yellow is pronounced "yaller." Accents don't bother me as much as plain old crappy grammar unless it's someone's name, though. If I were my uncle William, I would have major problems with answering to Weeyun. Which is why relatives are the only ones allowed to call me Kim. Just forget it if you're going to butcher my name. Just. Forget it.
