This is sort of like the pronunciation of "iron" (i think). It's a southern thing to pronounce iron more like "urn."

Similar to sjone1's wife's grandparents in Kentucky, we call our Ky granparents "grandmaw" and "grandpaw"--

Here in rural Kentucky sometimes you will hear people say "whenever" in place of when most people would say "when." Does anyone else do that?

My grandmother is from Minnesota, and she says so many bizarre things. She always referred to rubber bands as rubber binders. Any one else from up there do that?
