How do you pronounce these disputable words?

The following is a list of words which are often pronounced by native speakers of English in different ways.
How do you pronouce these words?
I'm more interested in how they pronounce these words in North America(US and Canada) but other native English speakers' replies would be appreciated as well.
With your replies, please mention where you are from(at least the name of the state or the province!)

Devon, England.
1. b (but it doesn't sound like auntie - the 'au' in auntie sounds like 'are'.
2. b (but I say kyu-pon, not kyu-pan)
3. a (The first syllable, unstressed, is a schwa sound)
4. a (But I do use the other version sometimes)
5. b
6. a
7. a
8. a
9. a
10. a
11. Neither - I say 'ri-ZORCE' (again, the first syllable is a schwa)
12. a
13. a

1. b (but as in Caspian's case, I use different vowels in "anti" and "auntie")
2. a (but as in Caspian's case, I don't have the father-bother merger)

5. b (although I did use the other version when I was younger)

<< 5. b (although I did use the other version when I was younger) >>

So did I, it's interesting - sometimes I say something and think 'I never used to say it like this'.

Are these 'a' and 'b' regular? By this, I mean are all 'a's adhering to one particular accent, and all 'b' s adhering to another, so you're trying to see which accents resemble these 2 accents the most?

I'd say that Massachusset English resembles British English more than Tennesse English, based upon the above. This is an interesting topic.

<<Are these 'a' and 'b' regular? By this, I mean are all 'a's adhering to one particular accent, and all 'b' s adhering to another, so you're trying to see which accents resemble these 2 accents the most?>>

No, they're not. It's really a random sampling of different cases of variability across North American dialects.

<<I'd say that Massachusset English resembles British English more than Tennesse English, based upon the above.>>

In some respects, yes. Massachusetts English is often non-rhotic (although my speech isn't); it retains the "father-bother" distinction which is generally lost in the United States; and it retains pre-r distinctions like "Mary-merry-marry", "serious-Sirius", "Tory-torrent" and "hurry-furry" which likewise tend to be lost in the US. We use /ɑ:/ in "aunt", and some older speakers even use it in words like "bath" and "ask".

Caspian, the other night I watched an old Bette Davis appearance on The Dick Cavett Show in the early 70s. She made an illuminating comment about Yankee English and Southern English that I think would interest you.

She noted that imitating a Southern accent was particularly easy for her because despite common belief, there was quite a bit of similarity between the two. (To an American, this is admittedly hard to believe.)

I submit the notion that both Yankee English and Southern English (particularly the non-rhotic varieties) are closer to British English than their General American English brothers. I know, for example, that old Southerners still use terms forgotten in AE, but still used in BE, e.g., "spelt", "ruint", "dreamt", the pronunciation of "humble" as "uhmble", and the dipthongization of certain vowel sounds, to put forth just a few examples...

Let me join this thread and add some more questions:

1) applicable: app-LI-cable or APP-licable?
2) amenable: am-e[eh]-nable or am-ee[I]-nable?
3) amok: a-MUCK or a-MAHK?

Thanks, that's really interesting.
<< "spelt", "ruint", "dreamt" >>
Isn't this the only way to say them? Oh, I see - you treat them as regular verbs, yes?

ESB:
1. app-LI-cable
2. am-ee[I]-nable
3. Neither - a-MOCK

Caspian, the typical American will use "spelled", "ruined", and "dreamed", respectively.

Eons ago in an AOL chatroom, I got into quite a heated argument over my use of the word "spelt", and actually got flamed over it.

By the way, you'll find that most Americans pronounce "often" ahf-ten, too, while as you can see Lazar and I retain the English pronunciation.

>> I know, for example, that old Southerners still use terms forgotten in AE, but still used in BE, e.g., "spelt", "ruint", "dreamt" <<

I would hardly say "forgotten". I use "spelt" and "dreamt" all the time. Not "ruint" though.

11. resource = a) REE-sorce (I save the Z for rezourseful!)

12. route = a) ru-t (root) / b) raut -- depends! Usually I say root, but not if it's a paper rowt or something like that.

13. suggest = a) sujest / b) sug-jest -- depends!

Southerners often seem to retain a lot of features that the rest of us would consider old-fashioned or hillbilly -- imagine our surprise to hear them alive and well in the more urbane settings of the UK!
