IMDB...its not fanboard
Remember that it did come from a book written by a man who wrote the stories for his son, and he used a lot of things his son used to say. Heffalumps, woozles, jagulars... all words his preschooler couldn't quite pronounce. So suppose the little English kid threw a little too much oomph into the word "acorns" and there you go. My toddler has all sorts of alternative words and pronunciations, and they'd only sound stranger to me if she said them with an English accent.
shareI'm pretty sure Piglet has always said "haycorn," at least in the Disney animated portrayals of him. You'll also often see carrots spelled "kerits" and honey spelled "hunny."
shareHave you never read the books, OP??? (If you haven't you really should as they are very funny.) As Dewhistle point out, it is 'haycorns' in the books, just as it is heffalumps and woozles, becasue that is how the young Christopher Robin mis-pronounces the words. Tigger first appears in the chapter of 'The House at Pooh Corner' called 'In which Tigger comes to the Forest and has Breakfast'. No-one, including Tigger, knows what tiggers eat. Pooh first offers him honey, which Tigger dislikes, then takes him to see Piglet so that Tigger can 'try some of Piglet's haycorns'. (They eventually discover that what tiggers really like to eat is Extract of Malt, which Roo is forced to eat by Kanga to make him grow big and strong . . .)
