What is the correct pronunciation of 'waffle'? Last evening a female friend had a dessert and asked for a waffle, she pronounced it 'Woffal', I said that its a waffle (sounds like raffle) and that her pronunciation is a term used for someone who talks and talks about nothing, which do you think is correct, or does it depend on what part of the country you're from, though she was born and raised near where I have lived all my life.

@jourdain2....Your pronunciation is spot-on, but regrettably your spelling is somewhat surprising. I do have the advantage of having a Chell Specker in my Brirefox Fowser.

@Murdo....I hope the OP will forgive me if I appear to be waffling, but I question if it was necessary for you to mention 'offal' when it is possible that AB 'Veggies' are 'tuned-into' this thread, which started off positively as a potato piece of pronunciation.:-)

Hans.
The aroma of waffles waft towards me
Hans Eh? :) x
Woffal.

Hmmmm. How do you pronounce 'raffle', Peter?
You ask for a Woffal to eat and people Woffal on too ... Don't try to make sense of this. It's just the way it is.
Your friend is right!
woffle

the w-a bit being wo is very strong - whether or not the wa in water was originally in the 1600 rhymed with barter
