Do you say "Inny" or "Annie?"
The word is "Any."
How do you pronounce it?

6. Now, surely that should get you a couple of points from immigration
Terry. All you need to do now is work on 'eh' and develop an insane emotional attachment to a donut shop as the ultimate expression of national identity (paging Tim Hortons), and you'll be a Canadian!

7. You do know, don't you, that Canada was originally spelled...
CND?




C, eh? N, eh? D, eh?

10. I'm there already, SLB.
I've already added some "ehs" to my vocabulary! I like Tim Horton's (great donuts).

I'm almost there, guy. The b/f (who lives in Toronto and is orginally from Regina), says I'm an "honorary Canadian", which I take as very high praise.

9. Any = EH-nee
Little Orphan = AH-nee
Belly Button = IH-nee (unless it's an OW-tee)

There you have it; the definitive word on the subject. This thread may now die, as do most of the ones I post on...
