G'day again Rumncoke,

What's your location / 'English' language 'group'?

The accepted Australian pronunciation of "ewe" (as per my desktop Oxford Concise Australian Dictionary ... if not necessarily in the sheep-raising industry ...) is the same as the second person address "you" ... but its source is Germanic ... with pronunciation approximating "...ee oh woo ... " ... so it's two bob each way!

There was a good proportion of Germanic migration to parts of Australia, particularly in Bismarck's day - and there are still rural areas with a lot of German immigrants ... from a few generations back.

Anyway, I wouldn't baulk at finding areas around the English language diaspora that have stayed closer to the Germanic elements in a very polyglot language!

Regards,

BobB
