How do you pronounce "scone"? - Lemmy.world

I need your help to settle this perpetual disagreement in my home. I’m team ‘skon’ whereas my husband is team ‘skone.’ Some context, we are not native to the UK so I will humbly accept consensus.

I go with skon, for I am common as muck and not ashamed of it. I won't judge you if you say skone, but I will think you're posh.

But I am common as muck. I haven't met an H I haven't dropped and I'm proper Bermondsey and Millwall. And it's a "skone".

Spock has a cat. Your argument is invalid.

Hmm, I'm willing to entertain your evidence but let's do an experiment.

"Hew mate, giz a skon"

"Greetings good sir, would you mind if I partake in one of your delightful skones?"

Yeah, nah, one of these is deffo posher than the other 😉

"alright geez, giz a skon"

"Good evening my good man. My name is Lord Ponsonby Smythe Smythe Smythe. Could I trouble you for one of those skons?"

Works both ways.

I see we shall have to agree to disagree*, that second one makes no sense! :D

* but we'll do it in a civil manner, 'cos this is a nice place

By the power of editing clarification I shall smight thee in twain.
Lol your friend is incorrect but I do appreciate his confidence (and your underhand ways)
