[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh dear. Born in Niagara, grew up on both sides of the border with family on both sides of the border (though well north of Toronto, which, BTW, is pronounced Trahnna)). Will admit that, at least in our family, we did regularly use "hoser" to describe losers. Took years of being teased in college to stop saying "pop" along with a few other slang terms.[/quote] We say Trahno. The easiest way to tell someone isn't from Ontario is if they say Toe-ron-toe. Anyone who pronounces the second T or doesn't combo the first two syllables isn't from Ontario! Not sure how the rest of Canada pronounces it.[/quote] We say it the same way. Also, I'll never stop saying pop! -Vancouverite.[/quote]
