this works better if you just use the word "milk" instead of silk, so they'll already have milk on the brain

Lol, good idea!

I did end up with some silver, in case anyone was interested in the results of my silver mining research....

Woohoo!

I say, "milk". However, my mom is midwestern, and she used to live in Illinois before living here in California, so she says, "melk".

 

[Saylor]

I say milk but I know someone who says melk what a gal

 

[Sayori]

i’ve never heard anyone say anything besides “milk” and “melk” so i’m trying to decipher the differences

i think i say “milk” though!

 

[Roxxy]

I always say “milk”

(and thanks for all the threads)

 

[digimon]

i was just talking about this with @-Lumi- a few weeks ago, and i’m sure I say it like “silk”. but i’m curious if my pronunciation slightly changes when i’m not focused on it or if i’m not thinking about it

 

[Croconaw]

I definitely say “milk.” I haven’t heard any of the other options.

 

[Aquilla]

I am highly amused by all the non “milk” options lmaoo

 

[Flyffel]

Am I the only one who is so traumatised by the concept of "pilk" (Pepsi + milk) that I immediately have to think of that when I read this topic?

Anyway, as a non-native English speaker it would be strange if I didn't just pronounce it normally. lol

Dialect has a lot to do with it. Drawer (not an artist, but a container, mostly on a piece of furniture) is pronounced so differently depending where the person is from. It's why a lot of people having never seen the word on paper spell it incorrectly.

Draw -draa
Drawer - Draa er
Drawer - Droar - Drore (pronounce it like more)

English can be so stupid sometimes.

a lot of ppl in scotland (or where i'm from) will pronounce it "mulk"

while i don't actually say it like i want to create an inclusive environment for people to be true to how they say milk so i still voted for mulk on the poll
