Thread Name: Folklore: How do you pronounce 'coyote'
Subject: RE: Folklore: How do you pronounce 'coyote'
Growing up in West Central Illinois we pronounced it "ki-ote." Then the unwashed heathen brought in "ki-yo-tee" and we all used that for a while. About twenty years ago it all changed back to the way God intended.

From folks I've talked to, whether you like 'em or hate 'em depends upon how your lambing and calving goes.

My concern about ki-dogs is the endemic rabies in the US.
