Folks questions about plot points (especially for episodes of the various L&O series) have been asked by LTA IPs like this for years now. They started being removed at some point. That may not be in vogue anymore but this should be closed as it calls for debate. MarnetteD|Talk 19:36, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Elvis Song[edit]

When Elvis Presley sang "G.I. Blues" in 1960, he pronounced the first letter of the word "occupation" with an "aw" sound, not the "ah" sound I'm familiar with. Is this part of the regional dialect? Indexguy (talk) 19:26, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In my English it doesn't have either an "ah" or an "aw" sound. This is definitely an area where dialects vary. See cot–caught merger and father–bother merger. --174.89.48.182 (talk) 21:55, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To this Australian, that particular vowels sounds pretty the same as I would say it. (Which actually surprised me.) It rhymes with cot, pot, hot, lot, plot, etc. HiLo48 (talk) 22:11, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Elvis was from Tupelo, Mississippi, and spoke (and sung in) what I would judge to be a pretty standard Southern American English dialect. Of course, like anyone, he had his own particular vocal quirks, but on the balance, he sounds like any other rural white person from the deep south. --Jayron 32 17:35, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
