Cobra or Cohbra ?
Some say Cohbra (sounds like "covert") and others say Cobra (sounds like "cobber"). What is the general opinion ?:confused:
|
I though a Shelby Cobra would be [car-bra]? Third option?

Pronunciation
Rob,
I go for the Cobra, Cobber!!! Bit like the Chev vs Ford powerplant debate really.:JEKYLHYDE Mick |
My friends who are either Canadian, English or Sth African all say Cohbra and regularly take the piss out of the way we say Cobra. So I've decided they're not getting a ride in my COBRA! :LOL:
|
At the shelby factory in vegas they call it a cohbra.
Tomato tomarto i say. I have the same thing with my other car. Audi - Ouwdy or Ordy. |
All those vowels and diphthongs! US East Coast, West Coast, UK, Aussie and even German. This debate could be endless.
