OK while BB was on I never even noticed that Ed said the word girls as gewls...... Hmm..... Maybe I did not notice because I say it that way.

I think it's a South Australian way of saying this word. They have a slightly more English accent than most of us and there are also a lot of Germans that took up residence in SA so possibly a combination of both to get this pronunciation. Ed's sister Milly says gewl, gells, the same way.

Exactly! It has been referred to like this forever now, it will be weird seeing it in any other way. we know what we are referring to when saying gewls. TGIF, some people are getting a little restless ;)

Don't worry, I'm not trying to make you change your precious spelling of "gewl" haha

Just bringing up a differing viewpoint. Also you'll have to put up with me spelling it as "gehl" or "gell" if I ever use it. So much pain and suffering, I know :p hahahah


Exactly. I thought "gewls" was the way we'd decided to refer to Ed's pronounciation of it in here ...

There was no "decision", not that something like that would be likely in a forum like this.

Didn't realise it would set people off and become a big thing though.

Is it a big thing though? Have people been 'set off'? Maybe the forum is acting like one and people are doing forumy* things? You know- discussions, debates, rants, off topic convos etc.


*Not a real word, but you probably get what I mean haha
 
I for one see "gewl" and in my mind pronounce it as "ghoul" or phonetically as 'gool'. Either way it doesn't sound like the 'gell', 'ghel' or 'gehl' I hear when Ed says "girl".

Surely most people when seeing "ew" together will pronounce it like the "oo" sound in "pool" which is the way it sounds like in the words "screw" or "jewel" and the name "Andrew".

For the record I'm not having a go at anyone and have brought this up in a previous post long ago, but nobody made a thing of it. So it's good that Connoisseur's notoriety made something happen haha

this whole gewls discussion is just a distraction from talking about buoys, in fact, they should have been blessed with breasts since they have the name to go with it. why aren't girls buoys?
 
FFS these stupid back and forth arguments about English are as bad as the spelling and grammar police on other sites. Who gives a shit!

I keep finding girls who are "the one" but it's usually followed by "who pressed charges against you"
