As a distraction from Brexit, I thought I'd check how you pronounce SCONE.

Do you pronounce it so it rhymes with GONE, or maybe you say it to rhyme with CONE?

Apparently a lot depends on where you live!

[Cloverjo]

Gone. I’m in the South West.

[bhg481]

I'm a "Gone" man, brought up in Lancashire which, I think, is more relevant than where you live now.

[sanmac]

I'm a coner not a goner.

[TheDevil]

I actually differentiate between both pronunciations.

[retrocop]

Like cone with a s preceding. All my posh Scots in-laws pronounce it scon. Suppose they are thinking about some old chair?

[Mamyalynne]

Scone's gone - Lancs

[Ellipsis]

Before I eat it, to rhyme with cone. After I eat it, s'gone.

A scone in Scone is a skon in Skoon

[LadyCG]

I pronounce it, "Yummers."

[wiltsman]

I say Scone as in Gone

Cone - South West as well

[jazzyjen]

That’s interesting that Lancashire folk are saying “the scone’s gone”.
I’ve always lived here, and indeed I believe I live in the same town as Mamyalynne, yet I have scones carried by drones!

[The Builder]

GONE

I'm from Cornwall .......
