Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

How does one pronounce Appalachian?

[–] AsherahTheEnd 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (6 children)

App uh latch e en

Alternatively can be pronounced app uh latch in

Edit: been told I'm wrong

From Western PA and this is the pronunciation I grew up with (but all others were also accepted)

Yeah, Pittsburgh here, I totally say lay-shun.

It's been said the Pittsburgh accent is one of the least attractive so maybe don't go mimicking our diction.
