>>And one more that I wish Judge Judy would start correcting on her program is Axed, as in I axed if he had any money. Come on now how hard is it to say the word ask correctly.

>Come on down to the south sometime. The word 'asked' no longer exists. The word used almost exclusively is 'axed.' It drives me nuts. I have to correct my daughter all the time on that and on using 'Me and Kayla' instead of "Kayla and I." That REALLY drives me nuts. I've been correcting her since she was 3. It really bugs me when adults say it but I refrain from correcting anyone except for my daughter and her friends. I correct them all the time :o)

Depends on where in the south you are. Around here, the word is generally mispronounced 'assed'.
