Joe Offer	Folklore: Local place names - local pronunciation (122* d)	RE: Folklore: Local place names - local pronunciation	12 May 15
I spent my teenage years in Milwaukee, so I'm allowed to pronounce it Muh-WOK-key like the locals (silent "L"). Those of you did not live there in your formative years, are required to pronounce the "L." There is a way that we locals pronounce "Wisconsin" that many outsiders try to imitate, but they always fail. Don't even try - just pronounce it like it's spelled, or we'll think you're making an ass of yourself by trying to make fun of us. -Joe-
