''Axe' you a question?' Um....No.


"A$$" you a question? All the sudden we are watching Ace Ventura. Neither Ray nor Caliente can speak the English language. A perfect match. They can "conversate" all the time. LOL!

The girls whining over chili dogs? WTF? They were lucky it wasn't Fear Factor style. Eat larva, bull testicles, donkey's eye and cockroaches or some other food that might fight back like say sannakji. Heartbreaker is a joke. Girl, eat a d@mn hot dog. No wonder Mz. Berry was bawling she was having heartburn and indigestion. Get her some maalox and she'll be fine. LOL!

First of all, Ray has horrible sentence structure, vocabulary, diction, pronunciation...need I go on?

Hey I say axe all the time... as long as the rest of the english language is *beep* up I will continue to...

That ep did seem a bit Amazing Race like...it wouldve been awesome had they had to eat some damn donkey balls or insects. I couldnt believe those girls were whining over "hotdogs".

reply

Well, you probably shouldn't say it like that. You don't sound very classy.

reply

I'll continue to say it that way..til I die. English is *beep* up with it's many dialects and region-ization, anyhow. You cant change the unique flavor of people, and they wont change mine. Leads life to have a bit more color. I couldnt care more of someone's total perception based on a single word. In my case that sounds like it would be some elitist bleep-wit I wouldnt prefer to associate with anyhow.

Axe till I die.

So you enjoy sounding like a moron? OK.

reply

I enjoy sounding unique and individual. I also enjoy feeling that smug feeling knowing that there are still idiots out there who make total judgments on a single word. I'll always know those people are the true morons. Understand? Alrrriirighty, then.

reply

Just say "ask", it's not that hard. Give it a try.

Dude, say it the way you want. No one should care. It's not cool to judge over an axe.

reply

I know right. You can say a word however you want. Some people need to not take word pronounciation so seriously. How you say a word should not be a reason people call you "unclassy..moron..etc" Now what you say and your actions should.

With all due respect, people are judged on things such as proper pronunciation of words and proper diction. It may not be fair, but it is what it is. Trust me, if you needed, for example, legal advice and walked into an attorney's office, and the attorney you met could not pronounce basic terms properly (even if he/she knew what they meant) or used improper grammar, I doubt you'd hire him. Similarly, if you needed to hire a doctor and you went to a doctor's office only to meet a doctor who could not pronounce medical terms (even if he/she knew what they meant), I guarantee that you wouldn't want him to treat you.

First impressions last forever. If your first impression of someone is that they cannot properly construct a grammatically correct sentence, it is very possible that you will make a negative judgment about them. That's why people who care about their education and their children's education are so serious about diction and grammar.

I don't care personally how a person pronounces a word. Some people say 'Sa-horra' others say 'Sa-HAIR-A some say 'pr-OH-cess' others say 'Pr-AH-cess'. As long as the person knows what they are talking how they pronounce a word means nothing to me. I've been places where people say words a lot differently than I do but I don't automatically think to myself "OMG they're SO unclassy..this person is a moron!" Sure we all make first impressions but mine are based on how they present themselves and how well their personality comes across. There's NO person who can pronounce every single word in the english language perfectly! That's why we shouldn't go around correcting others.

reply

Amen, Nicki. Thank you.

You can be educated and still not pronounce various words the way you'd expect them to pronounce. You'd be surprised or you'd let it go over your head because after all they are (or maybe) in a white coat and board certified and you're not (you just sit and judge people based on a few words "mispronunciation", petty things). they also have the expertise.
Doctors can do everything else right except for a few things.
Again, no one gets everything right.
Someone off topic, but I had a gynecologist who has a speech impediment. Had because i couldn't afford him not because of his speech.

Then why not go the extra mile and wear a clown nose?

reply

WHO THE HELL CARES!

Lets just be real here and say it's racial because i hear white people say "axe" and "axed" (or a$$ed) when they mean ask too but no one says a thing about that when they say it.

If you don't believe me, listen to whites when they speak and yourself when you say it, it sounds just like blacks.

You can say the word ask fine alone though or in some statements better then others.
I agree with gundam_bravo4, the English language is fvcked up as it is, way before it hit America (or maybe when it got here, it was English speakers that taught us all in the first place, even they can't get it right).

Actually Haterlicious from my experience 99% of the time it is only black people who pronounce it "axe" not whites, not hispanics, not asians. For the most part..

reply

Celestina_La_Reina, no doubt it maybe said by black people more.
In reality tho it's related to the actual environment one grows up around. In let's say the southside of Houston, where I grew up everyone said it that way, Black, White, Latino, Asian. That way the pronunciation can actually transfer down any ethnicity. I personally was actually surprised to hear

If, BoSox is so worried about it maybe he should go try to correct the world. Get on those Mexicans for pronouncing 'shoes' as 'choos'. Get on those Chinese folk for fvucking up the 'r's. Get on those White people saying 'salmon' as 'sammin' when you can see an 'l' in it? 'Oven' as "u-ven". Vase as 'vaz'. All, I know is that your gon' need a ton of whiteout for that.

reply

^ agreed.

how about:

yers or yours
myin for mine


and some wonder why blacks think racism still exists.
Again, i heard whites say axe for the longest but it's only a problem when blacks say it. they pay too close attention to us and not themselves.

As for Ray J saying "one huned" for one hundred. Why can't they tell he knows. Off the show around family and others, it's becomes one hundred.
Generally no one speaks proper English around friends, acquaintances and casual places where you can be informal and relaxed.
