Canadian pronunciation of “out and about”

  • September 15, 2012, 11:07pm

@Noelito Campeon & John C, Hope Bagozzi has a fairly pronounced accent which is very different from the other people in the commercial. Listen to the way the guys at Watts Studio, for example speak. She has an almost british isles/east coast lilt to her pronounciation which stands out to me as an Ontarian Canuck(Toron-toe-nian) living among the 'Merkins in NY. For the record I don't still understand or hear the aboot thing. I am with with joe of Molson's "I am Canadian" fame http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRI-A3vakVg
