Hey kyro (or kee-row), do you say jie-row or yee-row? [/ QUOTE ] I'm 99% sure the correct pronounciation is "gee-row", however the Greek/Italian place near my office I say "i'd like a gee-row" and they say "ok that's one jie-row" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] everywhere else i've gotten them says gee-row |

[ QUOTE ] I say JY-ROH even though I know it's wrong. [/ QUOTE ] Same here. Mainly because everytime I've asked for one or ordered one and said YEE-ROH people look at me like I'm retarded [/ QUOTE ] Ditto. In SI, NY we had to say it that way. However, it's hard up here. Everywhere I go and say Jy-Row, they think I'm one of Jerry's kids. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm struggling to think of anything definitively American that we enjoy here. I mean, obviously, lots of things are, but I couldn't pick anything off the top of my head. Even less so in the UK. |
