KristinasCrafts I want to go now! Join Date: Jul 13 Location: Shortlands	Okay, food related again... How do you pronounce "Scone"? In a way that it rhymes with "gone" or "cone"? Really interested how everyone pronounces it actually, and where you are from... Edited at 05:10 PM.

No jam, no butter, no cream ... actually, just cheese scones please!

P.S. Bath rhymes with hearth.
Grass has the same 'arh' sound.
Tissue has a 'sh' sound.
I've never said 'brew', but I do eat tea not dinner.

I pronounce it like "gone".

Because, seconds after I start eating one, it's "scone".

Ooh, you sound posh.

Bath rhymes with caff or math. Not hearth.
Grass rhymes with ass, not a.r.s.e.

(the dots needed because the DIBB removes the word otherwise)
