I pick on my buddy all the time for saying melk and pellow. His family came from up over dere by Che-kaw-ga. OK, I did too, but I don't talk like that.

I pronounce route 66 as route 66...not root 66. I'm certainly aware that many people do say it that way, but it is a mispronunciation - much like saying warsh in place of wash.

    I have a good friend from their. They always call it the root you
    take, so it makes sense that if the device is determining the
    "root" the packets should take, then it's a rooter. Haha. It does
    sound very funny to me.
    If you have kids that watch Thomas the train, they call sir topem
    hat "the fat controller".

    Thank you,

    im watching a video on mpls by some British fellow, he pronounces
    router as rooter, is this the case on the other side of the pond?
    Is there a true pronunciation or is it just a matter of regional
    dialect?
