So, for school, we are looking at the different ways people pronounce things from across the nation. There are only 4 questions, and I need to find as many people as I can from as many states as possible. So! If you live in the U.S., I could really use your help!

Here are the questions:

1) How do you pronounce "caramel". Spell it phonetically for me ("Care-Uh-Mell", "Car-Uh-Mell", "Car-Mell", etc.)

2) How do you refer to a group of friends all at once?

3) Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper and Sprite are all ______?

or EN-va-lope vs ON-va-lope ( first example matchs Ensure ... Second matchs Encore) those are acouple more words I could think of being pronounced

Thats an excellent example! But not for this project
