I love the house but don't love the street name

Anonymous
I live on a street of very large houses (they are old mansions, not McMansions, I don’t live in Dc so can afford this, but I digress)

The street name is “Overhill Rd”

Some family members send us mail at “Overkill Rd”. Gets a chuckle. And it gets here, OP. So tell your family anything you like.

What? No it does not.

the "i" in Regina makes an "ee" sound
The "i" in Vagina makes an "eye" (rhymes with pie or high) sound



I’m starting to doubt the intelligence of DCUM posters bc Regina and Vagina aren’t even slant rhymes.


In Latin “Regina” (queen) rhymes with “vagina.”


Do OP's parents speak Latin as their primary language?


come on, you dont need to go back to Julius Caesar, Regina and vagina are two Italian words. they have the same ending but nobody in Italy would laugh if a street is called "Via Regina" because they have different meaning and nobody would think of the vagina when they read the word for "queen".

No but if they are from Goa, they may have learned enough Latin at their Catholic school to know the pronunciation.

They aren’t western. You’d never have a street address like this where I am from.


Its a proper name. People have it as a lastname etc. they beed to get over it.


the fact that people have it in their names is not reassuring, as we learned here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nv6FMEvNiWo

There’s a street near us called Rommel. Wonder if Goebels is also in that neighborhood.

No, it doesn't, idiot.

The 'i' in regina sounds like 'ee'.

Source: I studied Latin for 8 years.

I took four years of Latin at Harvard, and I can assure you "regina" does not rhyme with "vagina."

So, every tour I took in England, referred to Victoria Regina (rhymes with vagina) when Queen Victoria was mentioned.

OMG do people go to Harvard and waste their money studying Latin. How does that help you as a SAHM?

then Harvard sucks. in Latin, "regina" and "vagina" have the same ending "eena" pronounced in the same way . the Latin word "vagina" is not pronounced like the American work "vagina" (it's pronounced vageena)

Nobody else cares about your street name but you, OP.

None of that matters. What matters is how Canadians pronounce it since this is a thread about vulgar or naughty place names, and we're talking about the capital of Saskatchewan.

Good grief, people. Stay on point.

It’s like the Seinfeld where the woman’s name rhymed with a female body part… Mulva? Oh! Delores!
