The Local Linguist: A question for the grammar gurus Correct Russell Countyese pronounciation is thoed; it should be thoed rolls; but try showing that to some mule-headed Missourians-CM By Jim Upon reading your comment about Lambert's throwed rolls, I sensed a niggling question forming, one that will give me no rest until asked (and hopefully answered by those who have a greater command of the Mother Tongue than do I). Is throwed more properly pronounced throwed or thoed? (Please - no apostrophes need apply.) We denizens of the the greater Dent, Ky. area (including the entirety of East Montpelier and the lion's share of Esto) always said thoed and considered it Gospel pure. However, having spent my later years amongst the Yankee-speakers, far from the hills and hollows of my misspent youth, I find myself wondering if perhaps that were idiomatic to the specific locale mentioned. Can - will - anyone help me out here? This story was posted on 2010-04-12 08:09:37
