And people who prononuce Missouri with an a at the end. There is a special place in Hell for people who do that. Right next to baby killers.

I give agreeance a pass because of the special place it holds for Sucksters.

I really don't care how people pronounce words, so long as I can understand what they mean. Language is about communicating, not making yourself feel
better by putting down other people.

Bilkis, maybe it's old people who say it? I've only ever heard it from older people, but I can't say that I've experienced a large sampling.

I did my undergrad in St. Louis, and I never heard any locals say "Missour-ah". I was told it was used on the KC side of the state, but I never went
over there to find out. People in St. Louis all seemed to say "Missour-ee".
