white people trying to sound ethnic = instant fail.

I say arsk. If you are white British you have the choice of arsk or assk, depending on where in the UK you are from - anything else will officially render you a bellend.
Ok. so who are the five idiots?
I say ASS K
ass-k. Brummie :biggrin:
Ass-k.

People from God's own county get it right every time with pronunciation :biggrin:
oh my god the amount of people that say arse k is truly frightening. arse-k is southern where as ass-k is northern, and the other two are like mockney slang.
ass-k ftw.

Arse K
I’m Australian. I know these British words:
Ask is arsk
Bath barth
Answer in arnsa
Dance is darns
Anything with an ‘an’ saying ‘airn’, ‘arn’ or ‘an’ in Australia is arn in Britain. I know again is agen. I’ve heard a-gain, but I say agen in Au, I also say advarns not advans and dance not darns. I know Irish people say ‘ask’ as and ‘a’ short vowel. Australians say arsk, parsta (not Irish pasta) and more. Taco is tarko, nachos is narchos as in saying British ‘nah’ or U.S ‘na’. Donut I spell donut. Do youse?
