Utah says “hur-ih-ken” for a town spelled Hurricane.

i’m convinced everyone says these cities wrong just for posterity’s sake. They are wrong, like how volvo has that color “swedish racing green” which is clearly blue. But that doesn’t mean it’s not how everyone says it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I guess to avoid an existential crisis folks just can’t accept people can do whatever they want lol.

To me the most cursed place in Utah is Coeur d’Alene. I tried pronouncing it with what I thought was a pretty Anglicized pronunciation (kerr deh lehn). Nope. It’s fucking Core Duh Lane.

May God have mercy on us all
