As for me, I always say “wa-ka-mo le” soft e. and it kills me when people say they are going “tub’n” down the “GWA da loop” when it really should be pronounced “wad a lu pe” soft e. I think with the river, it’s one of those only in San Antonio things.

I once ordered an avocado burger at a restaurant and it came without the avocado. When I asked the waitress about it, she said, "oh! I forgot it." She left, and then came back with 3 little packages of guacamole that I was supposed to squirt on the burger.
Back on topic, lol, I have always said it as gwok-a-molee. But then, I grew up in Las Vegas...

Well, the Drag in Austin is pronounced "GWA da loop" too. And seeing how they pronounce Manchaca as "MAN shack" kills me!  |

I've heard "GWA da loop" in Austin, too. But, please tell me you're kidding with the "MAN shack!" |
