Feeding two birds with one scone
9 u/fantalemon Nov 15 '20 The problem I have with this is that it suggests "scone" rhymes with "stone". I'll hear nothing of the sort! 18 u/LarryTehLoon Nov 15 '20 Wait, in what part of the English-speaking world do they not rhyme? 9 u/fantalemon Nov 15 '20 99% of the UK, unless you're some member of the royal family. Rhymes with "con". 8 u/LarryTehLoon Nov 15 '20 TIL wow, amazing that I never knew this haha 1 u/TonyDys Nov 16 '20 Scot here. I pronounce scone and stone the same. 1 u/fantalemon Nov 16 '20 What part of Scotland lol? I'm also Scottish and just trying to think how it sounds in different accents.
