How do YOU pronounce the word 'forte'?

I thought that was how Canadians describe a military building?

"Fort, eh."

Lol, that too. Speaking of stereotypical speech by countries, I like how you Australians pronounce “ deck”.  

“ I have a big deck”



 

That's New Zealand. We Aussies love to poke fun at the Kiwis' "suxes and sivins". They have a bug d!ck.

Haha okay fair. I’ve had a million convos or more with someone lives in NZ in the past,  so that’s where I get the “deck“ from. I just assumed you all sound the same as them :) GO ALL BLACKS!! ?? 

Go wash your mouth out with soap. We sound like Kiwis the way you Canucks sound like Yanks, ie hardly at all (although the Vermont accent can be hard to pick).
Canadian race car driver Allan Moffatt used to get very upset when Australian fans of rival drivers chanted "Yankee go home" at him.
Don't talk rugby to me, it's a sore point - the Wallabies haven't won the Bledisloe Cup in over a decade X-( This post was edited by Slartibartfast at September 4, 2020 6:46 AM MDT

Lmfao :) I had no idea there was a rivalry there :) at least you pity call sandals “thongs” correct? Have that in common... also, do you like this video? 

Flip flops are "thongs". Anything with a heel strap is still a sandal, or "Jesus creepers".

I'd love to see the Springboks play a few Zulus in the forwards - then South Africa could answer the haka with an Impi war cry which would be EPIC.

I absolutely love the Haka and all things related to the Mauri tribe. This post was edited by Jaimie at September 4, 2020 6:47 AM MDT

Sez who?

Any dictionary and anyone who knows correct English.

Balderdash and poppycock...find another resource. Either is correct depending on the usage.

No. The word does not describe a building designed for battle. That's a fort.

Huh?

 

  That’s how I pronounce it. (Try to keep up.)
