The important thing is that we all say SPAM the same way.

Yeah, with a long 'A' sound in the middle, right? SpeɪmThe important thing is that we all say SPAM the same way.
They still have the letter "R", but it only gets pronounced at the beginning of words, and it occasionally gets pronounced at the end of words that don't have the letter "r"So...the alphabet on LI has 25 letters?
I'll break it down by syllable:"Lew-e-ville"? Is that right? It's a liquid-feeling word, so rolls right off.
This is making feeling like face-spalming.More like..."SPALM."
Lewis ville.I'll break it down by syllable:
LOO-uh-vul.
- LOO- This is the stressed syllable. It's also the only one that's remotely phonetic.
- Uh- It's pretty much like you got punched in the abdomen, but a little less breathy.
- Vul- This is where the cigar and 6 Bourbons really come in. As long as there's something resembling a V sound at the beginning and an L sounds at the end, you can't slur it too much.
I swear I was never corrected and, again, I blame ESL parents, but I've always pronounced it (until recently) "Louis-ville". I'm a heathen, sorry.I'll break it down by syllable:
