My mom and I also once had a solid minute during a car ride of trying to pronounce both with no L in it, and we ended up sounding wicked silly.

In short, it's not just you!
Haha, good to know!

I also was completely unaware of this until I moved out of New England and had it pointed out to me.

Actually, quite a few of these maps (#1, 5, 6, 21, 26, 63, 73, 78, 86, 84, 103...) explain why I get weird looks when I speak
