How Did You Pronounce Chicken Breeds Before BYC?

[Corbdee]

I've pronounced Wyandotte, as Why, an doat.

Yeah I think that’s how it’s supposed to be pronounced

I learned it's actually pronounced as why, an dot.

Lol I pronounce things pretty much the same as I always have.

• “Wyan-dote”
• ”Sue-sex”
• I used to say Ameraucana wrong. I say it correctly now, but I used to say “Amer-roo-a-cana”
• Mottled “Molted”
• “Cray-el”
• “Ex-a-queer”
• ”Who-dan”
• “Dong Tow” (“Tow” as in “Tower” not like “Toe”)
• ”A-roo-a-Cana”

No matter how many times people tell me, I can’t stop calling it “sue-sex” instead of “su-sex”

“Ply-mouth rock”

 

[CHlCKEN]

“Ply-mouth rock”

Now I suppose that’s okay, since some accents do say “Ply-mouth.”

 

[CHlCKEN]

I used to say “Co-shin” not “Co-chin” before BYC.

For D’uccle used to say Duck-le instead of Dew-clay.
