Joke 394

21 Apr

Thanks to Sidey for this one.

I was walking in a cemetery this morning and saw a bloke hiding behind a gravestone. “Morning,” I said.

“No” he replied, “just having a pee.”

    … Took a minute, that joke doesn’t work with my accent. If you want to exclude me further, find a joke based on “curtain” and “certain” being homophones.

    ‘Cos they aren’t.

      So how do you pronounce ‘morning’ and ‘mourning’?

      Or was it ‘pee’ and ‘pea’?

        The vowels are different. In morning the vowel is o in mourning it s ou.
        So morning it is like in ‘loss’ and in mourning it is in like … The o in mow.

          But both words are pronounced the same. They are homophones. The “or” and the “our” are both pronounced as in the word “or” or the word “tore”. If you check a dictionary, you will see that they are pronounced exactly the same.

            In England. Not here in Scotland. The Dictionaries are “English” dictionaries. I was just saying that because I am Scottish it took two readings are they are not homophones here šŸ™‚

              Oh I see!! Well that makes sense then. I’m in America, and try as I might I couldn’t see how they wouldn’t sound the same! lol I was really puzzled and a bit worried for you! šŸ™‚ By the way, I enjoyed your post about it. Will probably be back to visit your blog again soon. Thanks for setting me straight.
