I want to know how Americans and non-Americans pronounce these names:
Illinois, Missoiri, Mississipi and Vermont. Bonus: Worcestershire.
Or just add to the list. Vocaroo is optional.

>pronouncing the "s" in "Illinois"
Pretty much everyone pronounces the American placenames the American way because of movies
Do Americans not realize that?
>>24470097
France never owned the Arabic peninsula, or the Eastern US coast.
However there are regions in Europe that we did own, like Rome or Croatia.

Nope, but I'm in the same time zone.
>>24470389
But isn't that "misery"...?
>>24470403
more like misury, no real emphasis, just kinda said differently

But it's pronounced like "dehmwan" in French, and I always hear Americans say "Day Moyn"

Why do so many people have problems with Worcestershire? It's just "Worcester" ("wusster") with "shire" (shur) on the end.
