Once had a director from Rhode Island...First time working with her, she told a fellow actor to "stand over there next to her-ah", and to me she said, "and you can stand next to her-ah." Both times, she indicated a different female, confusing all of us. But we followed her direction...By the third rehearsal, we were at our wits' end, trying to figure out how there could be so many women in the cast named, "Herah", and three of us, simultaneously, said, "Who's Herah?"
We knew full well that she she could end a word with an "R", because she called her daughter Angeler.
My late MIL was from Maine. She pahked her cah, and she ate cahn for dinner, but her daughter's name was Donner.
When I worked in the travel industry I constantly heard people call O'Hare airport called O'Hara. I never corrected them though because I knew what they were talking about.
One of my favorites was one of those 3-line signs at a gas station. "Diesel", they proudly proclaimed. On the line directly below was "showers". A little harsh on the skin, one would think.
I posted this on another thread, but works here as well.
