pork = poh-rk

fork = faw-rk

though = not over-pronouncing the 'th' sound as if you have a lisp and are trying to say 'so'

Is it f**k! 

It's p-orc and f-orc, like what we would call the govan locals.

But that is how you pronounce though.

Th-oh.

P-orc is what a guy from Ayrshire does with with his "cor". Do you want to be thrown in with Ayrshire for shocking pronunciation?

Mrs Boo's pronunciation at times, and that of her offspring and friends really get on my tits. It's like they are reluctant to speak normally and choose any alternative to a normally spoken word[emoji35]

E.G. instead of school her son will say skill!!!

No. The english language has loads of quirks.

Pork is pronounced poark.

Can i also throw in the mix 'oven'. Anyone who doesn't pronounce it as uven needs a shoeing.
