I own that scone!/That scone is gone!: The Great Debate

Also, I've always heard it pronounced "scown" so that's how I've always said it.

I'd completely forgotten about that pronunciation.

It's definitely a very niche, not widely-spoken one.

Isn't 'Scown' (like clown) also how one would say 'idiot' in Na'vi?

Because if you are saying scown (like clown) then that is what you are.

Haha. No, I didn't mean like clown. I meant "scown" as in combining the word own with sc. Like the first pronunciation mentioned in the thread.

There are people who pronounce it like clown/down/frown? Weird.
