    I like that people always pronounce 'often' the wrong way.

    How are they supposed to pronounce it? "Off-ten?"

    I saw "awf-ten" because any word with "of" in the beginning is given an "awwwww" sound because of my accent.

    more like "of-tun" for me.

    my accent is atrocious I was in a totally random town today, and straight away people recognised our accents and called us wooly backs (it's a nickname for people from my town, as our accents are so ugly basically)

    Local pronounciation of 'often' is of-FUN. There is no 't'.

    Ah. Come to think of it, I say it "awffun" unless I'm trying to sound proper. :3

    And, be honest Rye, how often are you "proper"?

    When I shift into the higher voice I have, in which I sound like a mature, not at all depraved, young woman without a hint of her Queens "Noo Yoikah" accent who will be tutoring your child to reach a greater standard of success in his or her academic career, and attending your prestigious college to work to the best of my abilities to hone my skills in not only the vocal stylings of classical music, but in educating the young musicians of our country. :3

    It's rare, but it does happen.

    The word has 3 syllables, there's no way to get around that. Except by not saying the second syllable. :southernaccent:

    Caramel. Accent on the first syllable, last syllable with a schwa.
