Pronouncing the fastest cake in the world

Let’s settle this once and for all.

Is Scone pronounced ‘Scone’ or ‘Scone’?

“Scone”, definitely. Only a feeble - minded imbecile would pronounce it “scone”.

couldn’t care … as long as it has jam and cream in it in Cornish or Devon take on things it don’t really matter does it :wink: :wink:

I couldn’t agree more.

Pedants!!

Before you eat it, it’s a scone. When you’ve eaten it, it’s gone.

How you pronounce it depends on where you were brung up.
Personally I would pronounce it as “scone”. :smiley:

This debate has proven to be inconclusive. You’ve been no help at all!

No problems, if you don’t ask questions then you will never learn anything.

The silly question is the one that you didnt ask.Scone should rhyme with gone and not with lone. HTH.

Posh people pronounce it ‘Scone’. The majority of people say ‘scone!’
But coincidently when Maoris were first introduced to them in 1850 they hilariously called them’SCONES!’ They’ve never been able to live that one down. :laughing:
