Ask.

Aks is soooo annoying, I've only ever heard it said on TV though.

Just.... ASK :yep:

ah-sk

Yeah, like, most of the UK isn't black, so...

So only black people say 'aks'? Last I knew it was only common and uneducated people who said it like that, and now you're telling me you have to be black in order to be common and uneducated, in order to use slang terms? Pathetic.

I like to a s k :smile:

Ass-k
or
Arse-k

you archs me what I mean by saying I have lost my tongue. I archs you, what would you do if
you had two tongues in your mouth, and lost the first one, the mother tongue, and could not really know the other, the foreign tongue

Is that an excerpt from a poem which was half written in Gujariti? It sounds familiar.

Yeah, okay, I'm a Londoner and I'm black, and even though I don't, a lot of us say axe instead of ask. But I don't give a **** because London is the best city in the world, so if it makes you feel better to laugh at our silly pronounciations go for it.

"omg lulz at all those black people who can't say ask hahsshfghkljhfshgahaha" It doesn't even surprise me to find slightly racist comments on TSR anymore.

exactly, bagration you have to understand that black people in the UK are from different backgrounds so its impossible for every/just about every black person to pronounce it the same way.
