So, this is filmed in Canada. In the US, refer to tractor trailer trucks as Sem-eyes. Is it common in Canada to refer to them as Sem-ees. It was quite distracting when I first started watching it, but I've gotten used to it after a few episodes. Good show.
shareSem eees yeah...Yeah
shareIf 'H E M I' is pronounced 'Hemy', why shouldn't 'S E M I' be pronounced 'Semy'? I am American, and I pronounce it 'Semy', as in 'semi-circle', more often (with a 't') than not.
BOHICA America!
Dunno. I'm from the Midwest and I've always heard Sem eye. Sem eee sounded funny at first but not now so much.
shareBecause read, read, red is why! LOL
Midwest here too. Sem-eye tractor trailer, sem-eye circle, sem-eye automatic. (although I do say both sem-ee and sem-eye automatic)
