  • In the South, never judge a town name by the way it's spelled. These town names in Tennessee are no exception.

(BTW, this was WAY before smartphones and maybe before MapQuest - not sure.) When I asked her where she was, she said, “DEK-a-tur.” I made her say it over and over again, and I was so annoyed with myself because I was super familiar with North Georgia. How had I not heard of this place? I finally made her spell it. “Oh, De-CAY-tur,” I said, laughing.

    It’s hilarious that in the middle of the video, I thought: ‘Obion, TN should be on this list. Everyone I know pronounces it differently.’ And sure enough, not only was it on the list, but I was pronouncing it correctly the entire time!

    @Timotimo101 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love my native Tennessee and sure do miss it up here in Vermont. I think I got the pronunciation right on all of them except Mosheim and Lafollette. Mosheim is German and Lafollette is French. I thought it was MOSH-ime and LafollETTE so I learned something new about TN today. My favorite is the Swiss-German town named Gruetli-Laager.
