C O U P O N

Just curious, how do you pronounce the word?

 

I say Q-pon, but my DH likes to tease and always asks if I have my koo-pun book with me.

 

Koo-pon or Q-pon I pronounce it both ways...depends on how is comes out.

 

Oops, I forgot to include my vote. I say "koo-pon" (my husband says "que-pon").

 

you forgot one.... KOO-PINS. :lol: like from wisconsin.

And I don't know how I say it...I tried to say it out loud when I was reading the thread and it came out both ways! :lol:

I think I say it Q-pons though. :?

 

Ha! I never knew wisconsiners pronounced it koo-pins... I do that now and then just for grins and giggles.

I did the same thing you did, Koo ... tried to say it out loud, and it came out both ways! I even took one in my hand, held it up in front of me, and talked to it. "You are a coupon.". "Coupon".

 

I am constantly giving my mom a hard time cause she says it Que-pons. I'm like there is no Q in COUPONS! lol She also used to say Gararge, Sarterday, and Zeinfeld. I don't know what planet that woman is from, but I love her! LOL

 

My dad says ChiCARgo! :lol:

 

I hear Sherry pick on her home state that way. Sherry from mix 101.5. That's what made me think of it.

"Your a coupon." too flippin' funny... talking to a coupon! :lol:

 

That's almost as bas as a friend of mine's mom from Germany. She calls Oil, Earl.

 

I gre up in Milwaukee and never heard it with the "I", but definately with a "Koo" as in I scored one!

 

At least it didnt talk back!! :wink: :lol:

 

Hmmm...anyone else u give a hard time to for saying Q-pons? :lol:

 

Yeah just ONE other that needs constant correcting! He's a man, so what do you expect? LMAO!

 

maybe I broke it down wrong... how about KOO-PENS KOO-PUNS? Anywho... I just think it's fun listening to other accents. I know people get me to repeat myself because of my southern draw sometimes. Water is a biggie! It's WUDDER people! :lol: I mean webster REALLY just needs to go ahead and change the spelling! :lol:
