Poll for you. But really for my own amusement.

[brinshannara]

This stems from a voice mail I got today in which someone pronounced "Toronto" wrong. Just humour me, will ya?

[ETA: Well, I hate the LJ poll thing. The first two questions were cut off. They should be "How should you pronounce 'Montreal' in English?" and "How should you pronounce 'Toronto' in English?".]

[Poll #300090]

Answers early on Saturday morning. No cheating!

Answers were given on Friday evening, 'cause I have a lot of crap to do, and I would have forgotten this. Answers are in this post.

I didn't know the Toronto answer at ALL because, well, I don't really hear it said much, and when I do, it's by an American journalist, and I have no idea whether they're saying it "right" or not.

Also, I live really far away from Canada, almost as far away as you can and still live in the continental US ;)

You, my dear, got 4/5 right. More than anyone else, so far.

Everyone seems to have gotten the province between Alberta and Manitoba right, which amuses me, because I always thought people had NO CLUE what the hell that province is named.

And you also got the Toronto pronounciation right! Yay you. :)
