i agree.........cant everybody see........
.........it's a magic e!!!

some examples

cone
phone
alone
drone
hone
stone
zone
prone
SCONE!

the only one i can think of where the o changes sound when the magic e is in place is gone!
If that isn't proof enough for you all then that just proves my point that only dimwits say scon......no offence!

and for refference.......i can't be posh, i'm from yorkshire. And in all fairness, posh or not, it's the queens english so any one agreeing that the queen says scone is contredicting their choice if they pick scon!

Haha! I knew I was right.

The most likely origin of the word is from the Dutch word 'schoonbrot', which is pronounced SKOENbrot. SKON comes from naive pronunciation of 'schoon' as SKOON by the Scots (probably to tie in with their pronunciation of the placename), which was shortened to SKON for some reason.

So, the correct pronunciation is SKOEN, rhyming with cone, phone, loan etc.

Haha. Eat that!

EDIT: Oh yeah, brownie points to anyone who knows what I'm keeping quiet.

Sorry, unless someone rumbles me, I have no choice but to stand up for what I believe in.

It involves those dirty Germans.

No. You see, although you nicked it, the first one was funny. The second one wasn't bad... that was awful.

Chuck Norris doesn't know this thread exists. If he did, the internet would be deleted... so would Manchester.

There, I stooped to your level. Now shut up.
