Ah! ok! I understand.
I just get a bit defensive sometimes...

When the 3,000th person comes up to me and says "You Canadians say eh and oot and a-boot" (for out and about), my defense mechanism is triggered quite easily about the accents topic.

The word ABOUT......
My "about" sounds more like "a-boat" anyway...
Newfoundlanders seem to pronounce it more like "a-boot".
