[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] has anyone mentioned College of the Holy Cross in worchester MA?  Gorgeous campus!  We aren't Catholic but it's now on our short list. Of course not just because of the lovely campus setting . . . but that certainly gives it an edge.[/quote]
It is beautiful, but don’t you dare spell or pronounce it as “Worchester.” More like “Wister,” or, if you are from Mass., “Wistah.”[/quote]

I mean, Boston and MA have their accents

There is also a difference between Newark in NJ and Newark in DE. And we will tell you if you mispronounce it, I assure you.

I’m sure there are other regional accents and ways to pronounce geographic locations.

I visited Louisville last year with my family. That is another one that locals pronounce their own way and the rest of us get wrong frequently [/quote]
In the south, Worcester is pronounced like Wooster and Louisville is “Lewis-ville”[/quote]

Weird that they would confuse you like that.   Louisville is Lu-a-ville.  [/quote]
